The U.K.’s Finance Minister Rachel Reeves has delivered her latest update on the state of the U.K. economy and public finances, with the chancellor having to concede that growth will be lower than previously expected this year.
Addressing the House of Commons on Tuesday, Reeves said “the government has the right economic plan for the country,” which was met by immediate jeers from opposition lawmakers.
A plan, she said, that was “even more important in a world that, over the last few days, has become yet more uncertain,” amid the escalating conflict in the Middle East.
