Rachel Reeves doesn’t say whether the UK believes strikes by the US on Iran were legal. The Chancellor tells broadcasters during a visit in the West Midlands: "It is up to the US to make that case. We were not involved in these actions and, of course, we would never comment on the legal advice that the government receives." Report by Blairm.

Following the Bank of England’s decision to leave UK interest rates at 4.25%, Rachel Reeves says the government respects the Bank's decision. Speaking at the Times CEO Summit in central London, the Chancellor says, "we respect independent economic institutions, and the Bank has got an incredibly important but difficult job to do”.

Rachel Reeves says it is "disappointing" to have a month of "bad data", as the latest figures show the UK economy shrunk by 0.3% in April, a figure higher than expected. But the chancellor says U.S. trade tariffs have had an impact. Report by Brooksl. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
