>“I’m angry that Donald Trump has chosen to go to war in the Middle East — a war that there’s not a clear plan of how to get out of,” Reeves told BBC Radio 2 in an interview Wednesday.
>“The costs of borrowing for government have gone through the roof,” Reeves noted in the interview. “This country hasn’t done anything to cause those prices to rise, but the decision of Donald Trump, the decision that Keir Starmer and this government did not want any part of and are trying to de-escalate, is causing real hardship for people now.”
>“I think that people can see that what Trump has done in the Middle East is going to cause economic challenges all around the world, with potentially higher inflation, weaker growth and weaker tax receipts,”
This was apparent when the war started 4 weeks ago, but nevertheless it’s taken all this time for American allies to work up the courage to point out the obvious.
And some are still suffering in silence, or pretending that the Iranians are entirely to blame for this while ignoring the ones who started the war.

Funny because Labour attacked Tories economic record relentlessly during GE campaign.
When reality was a significant chunk of the issue had been Covid and Ukraine/Russia related and therefore out of their hands

Well, she’s had the job of trying to sort the economy out after 14 years of pretty stark mismanagement, and just as the first hints of improvement come through, Trump decides to trigger a godd old fashioned oil crisis. I’d be annoyed..
