"A Summer Of Discontent?!" | Strikes Loom As Reeves Says She Won't Exceed Planned Pay Rises
Rachel Reeves has been warned that “tough trade-offs” await her at this summer’s spending review, as she has been urged to prioritise investment that “boosts” public services and standards for families.
A report from the Resolution Foundation has suggested that the Government should focus spending from its “limited pot” in areas such as health and housing if it wants to increase living standards.
The analysis by the think tank also urges ministers to examine investment at June’s spending review in the prisons system and public transport, but describes them as “secondary priorities”.
