Reeves admits some will lose out in spending review
Chancellor Rachel Reeves admits not all departments will get what they ask for in the upcoming spending review, emphasizing the importance of fiscal rules due to economic challenges. The review, to be announced on 11 June, will scrutinize government spending closely following £40bn in tax hikes. Reeves defends her position against borrowing more money and not raising taxes, amid speculation of cuts to day-to-day spending on public services.
