Rachel Reeves, the Shadow Chancellor, responds to news of UK recession.



Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves has reacted strongly to the news of the UK’s entry into a recession, expressing deep concern for the impact it will have on the country’s economy and its people. The latest figures released by the Office for National Statistics show that the UK’s GDP has fallen by 20.4% in the second quarter of 2020, marking the country’s first recession since the financial crisis of 2008.

In response to this alarming news, Rachel Reeves has called on the government to take urgent action to prevent further economic decline and support those who have been hardest hit by the pandemic. She has criticized the government for its handling of the crisis, arguing that their lack of planning and slow response has exacerbated the economic impact of the pandemic.

Reeves has stressed the need for targeted support for industries that have been severely affected by the lockdown measures, such as hospitality, retail, and the arts. She has also called for additional measures to protect jobs and livelihoods, including extending the furlough scheme and providing more financial assistance to struggling businesses.

In a statement, Reeves said, “The news that the UK has entered into a recession is deeply concerning and reflects the government’s failure to manage the economic impact of the pandemic. We cannot afford to sit back and watch as businesses collapse and people lose their jobs. The government must act now to provide the support and stability that our economy desperately needs.”

Reeves’s response to the recession highlights the opposition’s growing concerns about the government’s handling of the crisis and their ability to steer the country out of economic turmoil. As the Shadow Chancellor, she will continue to hold the government to account and push for policies that prioritize the needs of the most vulnerable in society.

    The war about the sale of the NHS

    The British public will be happy to know that:

    Wes Streeting (Labour), Ben Habib, Nigel Farage, Richard Tice, Ann Widdecombe (Reform UK Party Limited) want to get the NHS privatised.

    Bye Bye NHS!

    Ben Habib on BBC QT 24.11.2022 already made his case for changes in the NHS, saying that the public must be prepared for it.

    So have a guess what that will be about! And who is behind all this? Nigel Farage and Donald Trump and for Labour, Wes Streeting and the Israeli IDF linked Health Firm. Source: "NHS Privatiser in waiting Wes Streeting cheers IDF linked health firm!" by KernowDamo on here.
