UK’s Reeves to Set Out Plans to Help Business With Energy Bills

The UK government will set out plans to boost the competitiveness of businesses at a time of rising energy bills, Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves said, while warning against heavy government borrowing.

Writing in an opinion column in The Times of London, Reeves said the war in Iran “will come at a cost” to families and businesses. Ensuring that the ceasefire holds is “the best protection we have against higher costs at home,” she wrote.
