It's time for Labour to stop being so timid and fix the damage done by the Conservatives' botched Brexit deal.
That is the best way to boost growth, put money in people's pockets and properly fund our public services.

⚠️ WOW. High streets are being hit with a business rates bombshell.
The Chancellor has serious questions to answer:
❓How many businesses will pay rates for the first time?
❓How many will see bills go up?
