The Chancellor claims he was able to produce this budget spending due to the economy.

Look in the real world.

We’re still living through the slowest economic recovery in a century.

Our economy is fundamentally weak.

ONS figures out today show the economy is not growing. Growth was 0.0% in the three months to January.

It’s Conservative governments that have starved the country of investment over the last 10 years due to austerity, resulting in a £192 billion hole in infrastructure spending.

What has that meant for people? It has meant cut bus services, closed GP surgeries and a crippling social care sector.

The people of Havant deserve a better budget, deserve better governments, the people of Havant need to know the Tories will never be on your side.

But Labour will, we will always be fighting for YOU, not rich donors or corporations.
