Conservative Shadow Minister, Matt Vickers, has said that there is “no growth in our economy, the only thing growing is our national debt” in an interview with Times Radio. Speaking ahead of an event by former West Midlands Mayor, Andy Street and Scottish Peer, Ruth Davidson, he reaffirmed the party’s commitment to controlling migration.
Mr Street and Baroness Davidson will speak later about the need for a new approach to dealing with electoral challenges. They are calling for a broader appeal to more centrist voters. Mr Vickers said “we are a broad church, but we are the party of the right.”
He added: “We are not scared of Reform, we are actually putting our pitch forward […]” and warned “the Labour Party tax anything to death that even tries to do the right thing,”
