Rishi Sunak: Time to 'turn our attention to cutting tax'

The PM said taxes could only be cut when inflation was under control and "official statistics show that promise has now been met".

Ahead of the Autumn Statement on Wednesday, he pledged the government would approach this in a "serious, responsible way", now that the inflation rate had halved since the start of the year.
