Reeves Under Fire: A UK Spring Statement Shock!

Chancellor Rachel Reeves is catching heat in the UK after unveiling her Spring Statement, which critics claim derailed the economy. Commentator Carole Malone questioned what "planet" Reeves is on, criticizing her portrayal of the economy, stating it's not booming but rather stagnating. The statement, promoting work and UK's defence industry, faced backlash for ignoring the plummeting living standards. Analysts are wary, highlighting the struggle of balancing economic books at the poorest's expense and criticizing it as an inadequate Labour approach.
