Rachel Reeves faces criticism as UK borrowing costs hit 27-year high

Rachel Reeves, the UK Chancellor, is facing criticism for her economic policies, which have led to stagnation and rising borrowing costs. The cost of long-term government borrowing has reached a 27-year high, raising concerns about the economy's health. Reeves's recent budget included significant tax increases and spending, which some believe will hinder growth. She now faces pressure to either cut public spending or increase taxes again to manage the rising debt. Additionally, the Labour Party is under scrutiny for blocking a national inquiry into the mass abuse of young girls, raising questions about accountability and the handling of sensitive issues within the party.
