Reeves: This government is going to crack on and deliver
Rachel Reeves has asserted that she is "confident" that her plans for Heathrow expansion will find the right balance between sustainable aviation and economic growth.
This comes a day after the chancellor's major speech outlining plans for economic growth and initiatives, including a third runway at Heathrow Airport and investments into the Oxford-Cambridge 'Growth Corridor'.

Robert Jenrick says "confidence has collapsed within our economy", after the latest Office for National Statistics figures show it contracted by 0.1% in January. The shadow justice secretary says the figures are a result of Rachel Reeves' "disastrous" Autumn budget, and urges the chancellor to stop her "anti-growth measures" and "put the economy back on firm footing again".

The chancellor says the current welfare system "is not working for anyone", after Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer announced the abolition of NHS England.

The energy secretary has stressed that a third runway at Heathrow Airport would be delivered in line with the government's plans on reducing carbon emissions. Ed Miliband said: "This government has shown global leadership on the climate crisis since we came to power" and that "any decision on aviation expansion will have to meet our carbon budgets and local environmental standards".

The shadow chancellor has argued that Rachel Reeves's plan to expand Heathrow Airport doesn't do enough to tackle economic issues affecting people now, claiming it will only come into effect in the next 10-30 years, if at all. Mel Stride did, however, assert his support for Reeves's planned Heathrow expansion, despite citing Labour divisions about the issue including Mayor of London Sir Sadiq Khan's objections.
