Anneliese Dodds – 2020 Comments on Threat to Businesses

The comments made by Anneliese Dodds, the Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer, on 21 December 2020.

For businesses and workers right across the country, this winter is going from bad to worse. They are craving certainty and leadership from the Government but the Chancellor is still nowhere to be seen.

People understand that these are extraordinary times, but the UK Government’s irresponsible choices mean we have been much harder hit, with the steepest recession of any major economy.

It’s time for the Chancellor to front up, do the right thing and speak to the British people about the economic challenges we face and the support he is planning to offer.
