• PM Keir Starmer has only been in power five months but some of the hardest working Brits are already throwing in the towel.

The article from Express.co.uk discusses Rachel Reeves, the Shadow Chancellor, who has warned that the UK economy is at risk of shrinking due to the current government's policies. Reeves criticizes the Conservative government for what she describes as "stunts" that prioritize short-term political gains over long-term economic stability and growth. She highlights the lack of a coherent economic strategy, pointing out issues like high inflation, rising interest rates, and the potential for a recession. Reeves argues that these factors, combined with the government's failure to invest in key areas like infrastructure and green technology, are stifling economic progress. She advocates for a Labour approach that would focus on wealth creation, investment in public services, and fostering an environment conducive to business growth, aiming to reverse the economic decline she attributes to the current administration's mismanagement.
