Commenting on the inflation figures, which show CPI inflation rising to a 30-year high of 5.4%, TUC General Secretary Frances O’Grady yesterday said:
“Families are facing a double hit from high inflation and slowing wage growth. They need more help from government.
“The Chancellor must come forward with a plan to tackle the cost-of-living crisis. Working people need stronger rights to bargain for fair pay increases. And families need more help with rising bills through universal credit.”
