The Observer view on the spring statement: Rachel Reeves balanced the books but at whose expense? | Observer editorial
Briefly

The current British economy is in a precarious state, prompting Labour to implement fiscal rules aimed at stabilizing the situation without risking a severe sell-off in financial markets. Historically, various governments have fallen due to financial crises, and the present landscape might be more vulnerable than ever. Chancellor Rachel Reeves, despite criticism, is strategically enhancing public investment and reforming planning to stimulate growth, indicating progress in addressing these deep-rooted economic challenges and improving public infrastructure.
"Steering the British economy out of the mess Labour inherited is a slow and painful process, beset by economic and political hazards."
"Rachel Reeves has received a hail of brickbats for her spring statement, but strategically she has got a great deal right."
