Rachel Reeves claims there are ‘plenty of reasons to be optimistic’ about UK’s economy
Rachel Reeves has pledged to begin construction of Heathrow’s third runway, declaring “we want spades in the ground” as she unveiled her ambitious expansion plans.
Speaking to GB News, the Chancellor emphasised her commitment to swift action, calling for Heathrow to submit proposals by summer.
The move forms part of Labour’s broader strategy to boost Britain’s sluggish economy, with Reeves promising to make Britain “the world’s best connected place to do business.”
