Chancellor on raising striking public sector workers' wages

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt insists raising striking public sector workers' wages could mean "high inflation is entrenched for longer".

Speaking during a visit to a shopping centre in Woking, he says: "The Bank is very clear that wage pressure is one of the risks that could cause inflation to stay around for longer than we want.

We will talk to the unions about absolutely anything except things that will mean high inflation is entrenched for longer.” Report by Patelr.
