Our public sector workers deserve better than a pay freeze
It's been a hard year for families across Britain this year. A public-sector pay freeze is completely unacceptable. With the economic uncertainty caused by the pandemic, the Chancellor needed to ensure today that no one is left behind. That was the litmus test, and he has failed
