Former Sainsbury’s CEO Justin King joins Robert Peston to challenge the political narrative around the UK’s "cost of living crisis."
In a lively exchange, King argues that the data doesn't support the idea that people are materially worse off, while warning that government tax burdens are actively destroying job prospects for young people.
They also discuss the Labour government’s relationship with business, job creation for young people, the reality of supermarket profit margins, and why the "price cap" might be misleading consumers.
