Britain’s weak wage growth and rising prices have delivered a hit to living standards of a severity normally only seen during a deep recession, a leading thinktank has said.
And Brexiteers tell us things will be better when we break away from our biggest trading partners
KarenLeeMP What living standards would those be?
I hope that this doesn't worsen with Brexit Without doubt these post referendum years have brought uncertainty to overseas investors who will remain observing developments until there is a clear path to the European market The new UK authorities must be prudent in their decisions
