UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer pushed back firmly against accusations that Chancellor Rachel Reeves failed to present the full picture of Britain’s economic situation ahead of her first Budget. Speaking to reporters, Starmer insisted there was “no misleading”, rejecting claims from opposition parties and some economists who argue that key fiscal pressures were not fully disclosed.
The controversy follows growing scrutiny surrounding the government’s economic messaging as the UK faces sluggish growth, rising borrowing costs, and competing political expectations over spending and taxation. Reeves has defended her approach, saying the Budget will be grounded in “economic honesty” and “long-term stability,” while critics say the public deserves a clearer breakdown of the financial landscape.
