UK growth slows - as chancellor admits she's 'not satisfied'
Reacting to the figures, Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves said: "Improving economic growth is at the heart of everything I am seeking to achieve, which is why I am not satisfied with these numbers.
"At my budget, I took the difficult choices to fix the foundations and stabilise our public finances.
"Now we are going to deliver growth through investment and reform to create more jobs and more money in people's pockets, get the NHS back on its feet, rebuild Britain and secure our borders in a decade of national renewal," Ms Reeves added.
Twaddle.

The economy will grow ... by minus2 percent.
I suppose one purpose of making many pension schemes amalgamate is that it will be easier for a government to bully just a few schemes rather than having to bully many. And it need only find a few malleable Chairmen. Further it's another blow against democracy: if a local pension scheme is badly run the electorate gets to express a view since it can replace the council. Presumably that ability will simply vanish. Il Duce would have approved.
Not just any twaddle, Labour pie in the sky twaddle.
