Camilla Tominey and Darren Jones clashed over Labour's new Summer Savings Scheme, which the GB News host slammed as "small fry".The Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister heightened the row when he described the policy's detractors as "wealthy commentators from the Westminster bubble".Last week, Rachel Reeves announced measures to reduce VAT from 20 per cent to 5 per cent on a wide range of leisure activities between June 25 and September 1, covering the full school‑holiday period across the UK.The temporary rate will apply to theme parks, zoos, museums and fairs, as well as children's cinema, theatre, concert and soft‑play tickets.
