understands Labour is still committed to spending £4bn more on the childcare sector, but it is reviewing how to best target the money
Next week, in the first phase of the Government’s childcare expansion plans, working parents of two-year-olds are to be offered 15 hours of free childcare each week. It means the party could wait until near the general election, which is expected this year, to outline its vision for the sector. The Conservatives seized on Labour’s caution on Wednesday, with Education Secretary Gillian Keegan accusing the party of stoking “huge uncertainty for working parents who are set to save £6,900 a year” under the Government’s childcare expansion plans.
The Early Education and Childcare Coalition said in January that ministers were “delusional” to insist they could meet their pledge to extend free childcare to all two-year-olds from April without a major recruitment drive.

Labour criticised for copying Tory economic policyRachel Reeves has been slammed after she said Labour would copy a key Tory economic policy. The shadow chancellor said overall public debt should fall year-on-year as a share of GDP by the fifth year of official forecasts. This policy was adopted by the Tories in November 2022. It would mean Labour can only borrow for investment but not day-to-day spending. This would limit the amount of money the government has to spend. The SNP has warned the move will "choke off economic growth and impose devastating cuts to public services". Unite the Union said the plans would mean Labour will "end up in a straitjacket of your own making." SNP economy spokesperson Drew Hendry said: "Yesterday's speech from the Shadow Chancellor confirmed what the SNP have been saying for some time now: the fiscal policies of the Tories and Sir Keir Starmer's Labour Party are now indistinguishable. "Labour's decision to adopt the Tories second fiscal rule will only choke off economic growth and impose devastating cuts to public services.
