i think rachel reeves had to say. i think rachel reeves key _ reeves had to say. rachel i reeves key message was that labour is now the party of business in her view and that this is a territory that has been contested and the conservatives is meeting small businesses as the same time that rachel reeves is talking to these big businesses at what is an oversubscribed business event. she has pledged that labour would govern as a pro—business party and has echoes of new labour and she talked about stability. but there seems to be a lack of stability when it comes to one of their flagship policies. if you remember, in 2021, rachel reeves was going to be the first evergreen chancellor and suggested she would spend £28 billion per year on green projects. since then that pledge has been watered down and will happen perhaps in the second part of the labour government, it's going to incorporate money of the government has put aside for green projects and above all is good be subject to labour's fiscal rules that the party says it can spend or borrow. but interestingly, she

the shadow chancellor rachel reeves has blamed the prime minister personally for the uk economy falling into recession, saying it was "rishi s recession". speaking earlier, she said this. at the moment the uk has the highest inflation in the g7 and only the uk and japan, i think, are likely to have gone into recession at the end of last year. so i don't buy this argument that you need to have a recession to get inflation down. other countries are doing an awful lot better at controlling inflation whilst also managing to grow their economy. i spoke to economist vicky pryce and she gave us her assessment on rachel reeves�* speech. vicky pryce and she gave us her well, it's true that the uk has suffered a little bit more by comparison to some other countries in terms of higher inflation and also concerns about interest rates needing to stay higherfor longer in the uk than perhaps will be the case elsewhere because we have a little bit of a sticky inflation problem, with wages having increased a bit faster than perhaps in some other countries. and it's very, very difficult to control that o

is it sir keir starmer or is it rachel reeves?time? could she not? and would be labour voters will be will be worried about that. they're worried that what seeing today , what we're seeing today, decisions will become decisions like this will become more and frequent more tricky and more frequent under a labour government . under a labour government. >> i think that's a really important question, ellie, who was the architect of this because it certainly wasn't ed miliband, who's the shadow energy secretary, seven months ago, he said that he tweeted saying there was pressure on the labour leadership to back down on its £28 billion plan. but he he said, and i quote keir, and i will never let that happen. that's pretty embarrassing for the shadow energy secretary today. and as i say, keir starmer himself was saying that he was loyal to the plan right up until tuesday , which leaves up until tuesday, which leaves which leaves the only option really, was that it was rachel reeves, the shadow chancellor, who it sounds as though she's be

the electorate completely understands that the financial frame in which rachel reeves was making thatrs ago is completely different from the financial situation we find ourselves in now, and god knows the financial situation we find ourselves in come the next general election, because we have had the liz truss mini—budget. we've got the cost of living crisis, the cost of running a business crisis as well, and the economic carnage that is being imposed on this country. and the risk, actually, and this is an even bigger and deeper risk, the risk for any political party, one that aspires to be in government is... the risk is you don't learn a lesson from liz truss. and that's why i think it's completely responsible for us to say we are not going to set an arbitrary figure that risks economic carnage and further risks people's mortgages across the country. you just described the 28 billion figure as arbitrary, which has been party policy for the last two and a half years until today. was it a mistake to put that number out there in the first place then? well, i've always been of the view

discussion around tax cuts ahead of the budget, you've got labour and the shadow chancellor rachel reevesoms with business leaders who are desperate to talk to them and i guess to see which way the wind is blowing as far as the opinion polls are concerned. but at the heart of it all is that central, always central battle for economic credibility? well, what i suppose i would say is that both parties are in more credible positions than they have been, so, you have got the, you know, clearly, keir starmer, rachel reeves, it's miles away from the jeremy corbyn, john mcdonnell world, they are really engaged with business. you do hear this message all the time, they're out everywhere, they are talking to people. they're setting forward some policies that are probably quite unpopular in terms of, for example, the bankers' bonus cap, i think they're right to say we are not going to reinstate that, but it is not an easy political message. so, they have come forward a long way, and business expects labour to win the next election. but there is real engagement. but to be fair, jeremy hunt and rishi

sir keir starmer and rachel reeves, his shadow chancellor, believed they have made real inroads withem to trust them with the public finances, with the economy, and they fear that the conservative attacks on the £28 billion were becoming a distraction, potentially even damaging that reputation. now, there is a long—running debate which has played out under successive labour leaders over how to balance economic credibility with economic transformation. that argument is one in which sir keir starmer and rachel reeves are today definitively king a side. �* , ,, ., ~ .. side. and rishi sunak came under ressure side. and rishi sunak came under pressure yesterday _ side. and rishi sunak came under pressure yesterday to _ side. and rishi sunak came under pressure yesterday to apologise l side. and rishi sunak came under| pressure yesterday to apologise to the family of brianna ghey over his comments at pmqs over labour's transgender policy, has he apologised?— transgender policy, has he apologised? transgender policy, has he aolouised? ., .,, �* apologised? no, he hasn't, in fact he has com
