Rachel Reeves, the current Labour figure, appears to be shifting towards a more business-friendly agenda, reminiscent of Conservative policies. After her budget speech emphasizing tax increases and public spending, she now aims to remove barriers to business and consider new airport runways. Some insiders suggest she is responding to pressures from the business community and her own party's focus on economic growth. Recent metrics indicate that the UK economy's performance is declining, prompting concern and urgency among business leaders and unions alike.
Rachel Reeves is suddenly in a rush. She'd hate the comparison, but the way she's been talking over recent weeks sounds more like a Conservative chancellor.
The metrics that measure how the government is doing in their touted top priority—making the UK more prosperous—are patchy at best, and bleak at worst.
