TaxPayers’ Alliance responds to £10 billion per year spending black hole

For immediate release

 

Responding to the Office for Budget Responsibility’s latest fiscal risks report released today, John O’Connell, chief executive of the TaxPayers' Alliance, said:

“These numbers are a wake-up call of the fiscal pressures facing us as we emerge from the pandemic. 

“It’s clear the economy has been battered by covid and left us a £10 billion black hole each year to add to our already 60 year high debt level.

“The government must get a grip on spending and bring our astronomical debt levels down.”
