Rachel Reeves has unveiled major infrastructure projects, including support for a third runway at Heathrow Airport. Her speech highlighted Labour’s commitment to economic growth, despite opposition. She emphasised that growth 'will not come without a fight’. Key projects include developing a 'growth corridor' between Oxford and Cambridge, upgrading transport links, building nine new reservoirs, and redeveloping the Old Trafford football ground. However, the lack of public funding for these initiatives raises concerns about feasibility. Heathrow’s expansion is controversial, with critics arguing it will harm the environment and increase costs for airlines. London mayor Sadiq Khan and green energy entrepreneur Dale Vince oppose the plan, and the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats argue that the government’s approach is ineffective. Despite these challenges, Labour insists that investing in infrastructure is crucial for long-term prosperity and ensuring the UK is not left behind in global development. See
