Among the proposals is an increase in the minimum wage to £12.21 per hour
Rachel Reeves is set to make a commitment to increase 'more pounds in people’s pockets', address NHS issues, and stimulate economic growth in Labour's upcoming first Budget, despite cautioning that difficult choices lie ahead. The Chancellor, who is the first woman to serve in this capacity, will emphasise that there are 'no short cuts' to achieving the economic growth Labour aims for, other than through investment.
Because that is the only way to improve living standards. ' 'And the only way to drive economic growth is to invest, invest, invest. There are no short cuts. To deliver that investment we must restore economic stability.' Linking her party's mission with historic Labour governments, Ms Reeves will assert:L 'It's not the first time that it has fallen to the Labour Party to rebuild Britain'.
