Labour’s Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves expressed concern over the latest UK GDP data, describing the consecutive two-month contraction as “disappointing” and a clear sign that the economy is facing serious headwinds.
Reeves warned that shrinking economic output threatens jobs, living standards, and public services, calling on the government to take urgent action to stimulate growth and tackle inflation.
“The British people deserve an economy that works for everyone,” Reeves said. “These figures highlight the need for a stronger economic plan focused on investment, skills, and fairer growth.”
The UK’s economy contracted again in [month], raising fears of a technical recession and intensifying debate over fiscal policy and monetary support. Analysts point to factors such as weak consumer spending, global uncertainties, and persistent inflation as key drivers behind the downturn.
Reeves’ comments add to mounting political pressure on the government as the economic outlook remains fragile.
