Protesters demand action from government to tackle cost-of-living crisis | ITV News

Protesters have gathered in London calling on the government to do more to tackle the cost of living crisis amid "harrowing" evidence of the impact of soaring inflation on families. Trade union leaders, frontline workers and community organisations joined the demonstration in London, demanding a "better deal" for workers struggling to cope. Banners reading “cut war not welfare” and “end fuel poverty, insulate homes now” were on display. The TUC, which organised the event, said workers were suffering the "longest and harshest" squeeze on their earnings in modern history. Chancellor Rishi Sunak has announced a £15 million package of support to help tackle the rising cost of living - but critics say more needs to be done. • Subscribe to ITV News on YouTube: http://bit.ly/2lOHmNj • Get breaking news and more stories at http://www.itv.com/news Follow ITV News on Facebook:   / itvnews   Follow ITV News on Twitter:   / itvnews   Follow ITV News on Instagram:   / itvnews
