Rachel Reeves has been accused of making the British economy “far more vulnerable” with “gross mismanagement” amid global insecurity, Shadow Chancellor Sir Mel Stride has said.

The Chancellor was challenged on her handling of the current situation while updating the Commons on her response to the conflict between the US and its allies with Iran.

Sir Mel began: “It is clear that these are very serious and concerning times, and the developments in the Middle East are already having profound consequences for our corporate dollars per barrel.”

“For the first time since the 2022 energy crisis, that alone is enough to have huge knock-on effects for households and businesses.”

Taking aim at the Chancellor, he said: “Her approach to the economy in the run-up to this crisis, her gross mismanagement, has left us far more vulnerable than would otherwise have been the case.”

“The government, of course, is continuing to impose ruinously high taxes on our oil and gas sector and choosing to rely on imports instead of maximising our own domestic energy supply.

“That is proving to be an incredibly short-sighted approach, but as the right hon lady has just told us, there will be no change in direction; that is the wrong choice.”

The Chancellor has promised measures including a £15billion warm homes plan, a £420million buisiness electricty discount and a £5 per litre fuel duty cut.
