Rachel Reeves, who once made headlines by slamming the Tories over a so-called £22bn “black hole,” is now facing serious backlash herself as Britain’s debt spirals – and it’s happening on her watch.
The Office for National Statistics has confirmed that public sector borrowing from April 2024 to April 2025 hit a staggering £151.9 billion.
