UK Govt Injects Health Service with 'Record' Spending Boost
- On June 11, 2025, Chancellor Rachel Reeves delivered a key financial statement at the UK Parliament in London, detailing the government's plans and funding priorities for the upcoming years.
- The review followed Labour's election victory last July and responded to pressures on the NHS, rising asylum seekers, and global economic challenges.
- Key measures included a record £29 billion annual boost for the NHS, £39 billion for a 10-year affordable homes programme, and £86 billion pledged for science and technology by 2030.
- Reeves stated, "We are renewing Britain," confirming that defense expenditures will increase to 2.6 percent of GDP by 2027, while ending the expensive use of hotels for asylum seekers is expected to save £1 billion each year.
- The spending review aims to modernize public services and the economy, though it also included cuts to some departments and a business tax increase to balance budgets.
