Labour's Plan for Britain's Future

Together we can deliver that change and get Britain's future back

Labour's shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves delivers her first major speech of the general election

In her first major speech of the general election campaign, Labour's shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves has set out her party's plan for Britain's future. Reeves said that Labour would "deliver that change and get Britain's future back" by investing in public services, creating jobs, and building a fairer economy. She also pledged to bring back the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) and introduce new fiscal rules.

Reeves said that the Conservatives had "failed Britain" and that it was time for a change. She said that Labour would "invest in our NHS, our schools, and our public services" and would "create jobs and build a fairer economy." She also pledged to "bring back the OBR and introduce new fiscal rules" to ensure that the government's finances are managed responsibly.

Reeves' speech was well-received by Labour supporters, but it was met with criticism from the Conservatives. The Conservatives said that Labour's plans were "unrealistic" and would "damage the economy." However, Reeves defended her plans, saying that they were "affordable" and would "make Britain a fairer and more prosperous country."
