Thousands more raids and dodgy shops closed.
Hundreds of bosses behind bars.
Millions in dirty cash seized.
That is the fate awaiting the criminal gangs operating in plain sight on our high streets.

The UK has twice as many taxes as it had in 1993.
Not twice as much tax. Twice as many taxes.
Yes, we pay a bit more tax, but tax has got a whole lot more complicated. Time to reverse that.

Weâre taking the fight to the organised criminals who abuse our high streets.
We're backing the police and trading standards to shut down bogus businesses, stop dodgy shops from opening, and put the dirty cash they launder back into the public purse.

The Kremlin will not evade our sanctions by hiding behind crypto networks and shadow financial systems.
The UK is tracking down and shutting off financial lifelines that sustain Putinâs war machine.
New sanctions will prevent safe havens for those enabling Russiaâs aggression against Ukraine.

Iâm proud of UK leadership on Ukraine - under the last Government, and stepped up with this Labour Government.
But there is nothing to be proud of by removing Ukrainian flags and promoting Putin as a leader - like Reform does.

One of the first decisions made by Essex Reform was to remove the Ukrainian flag from County Council HQ.
Let that sink in.

Todayâs strong growth figures show the Government has the right economic plan.
The choices I have made as Chancellor mean our economy is in a stronger position as we deal with the costs of the war in Iran.
Now is not the time to put our economic stability at risk.

Surprisingly strong monthly GDP growth of 0.3% growth in March, in spite of the war, contributed to a very good first quarter for the UK economy:
GDP grew 0.6% in Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2026.
Services ( 0.8%) construction ( 0.4%) and production ( 0.2%) all increased.

I welcome the European Partnership Bill in the King's Speech â boosting our economic security by making it easier to trade with our closest neighbours and trading partners. Good news for small firms in Chelsea and Fulham hit hard by new costs and red tape.

Itâs been a very difficult time for the Labour Party, but the answer isnât to copy the Tory playbook on how to self destruct. A global security crisis and its economic impact on our country means we need political stability. Unity is strength.
