Conservatives welcome GDP growth but warn of April tax hit
Shadow Environment Minister Robbie Moore welcomed February’s stronger-than-expected 0.5% GDP growth but warned it “does not take into account” April’s tax rises and business costs.
He said there remains “a huge amount of uncertainty” for firms, with hikes in National Insurance, business rates, and the minimum wage now taking effect.

Caption: Merseyside Police describes the circumstances that led to 50 people being injured after a car drove into a Liverpool FC victory parade hitting several pedestrians. Merseyside Police Assistant Chief Constable Jenny Sims says it is believed that the car “was able to follow an ambulance onto Water Street after the road-block was temporarily lifted so that the ambulance crew could attend to a member of the public who was having a suspected heart attack”. The 53-year-old man thought to be the driver, is currently in police custody. Report by Ajagbef. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
Dozens of people have been injured after a car ploughed into a crowd of people during Liverpool FC’s Premier League victory parade on Monday. It took Merseyside Police less than two hours to reveal the ethnicity and nationality of the suspect. Contrast that with the lack of information following the Southport murders and subsequent riots last summer, and it’s clear the force has learnt lessons from the past. Report by Jonesia.
