Rishi Sunak said giving out public sector pay rises would be ‘short-sighted’ and ultimately 'make the inflation problem worse for everybody'. ‘I’m going to do the right long-term thing for the country.'

But now struggling to fulfil his pledge to halve the rate of inflation this year the Prime Minister said ‘no decisions have been made on whether to abide by the proposals.

‘So that’s what we’ll be guided by, we want to be fair, we want things that are affordable and responsible.’ ‘Ultimately if we don’t do that it will just make the situation worse and it will last for longer, that’s not going to do anyone any good,’ he said.‘I wouldn’t be the right kind of Prime Minister if I took the easy course. I’m going to do the right long-term thing for the country and that means bringing inflation down.’
