Should I retake A-levels?

i mean, no one can really tell you what to do - its your decision.
But i would say, given that you have an apprenticeships (i assume based on what youve said), that you might as well go ahead with that, i think employers would look at it as 'you got a B in economics, good you want to work in finance, youve done an apprenticeship in finance/accounting and have good experience and references, good you want to work in finance'. i really dont think a D in politics, when thats not your future career, is going to be seen as a huge factor in employment possibilities.

Take the apprenticeship if it’s on the area you want your career to go and take related qualifications if you can during that year. An employer will value those over a politics A Level which is frankly of no use to them at all.
