UK finance minister: We must stick to plan to get inflation down
LONDON, May 24 (Reuters) – British finance minister Jeremy Hunt reiterated on Wednesday the need to stick to the government’s plan to get inflation down, after official data showed an easing in price rises in April.
“Although it is positive that it (inflation) is now in single, digits food prices are still rising too fast,” Hunt said in a statement. “We must stick resolutely to the plan to get inflation down.”
