Asked if she would allow councils to raise taxes or tell them to sink or swim, the shadow chancellor said: 'I'm under no illusions about the scale of the challenge that I will inherit if I become chancellor later this year and I need to be honest with people.
Labour will not bail out bankrupt councils, the shadow chancellor has said. 'I'm not going to be able to fix all the problems straightaway,' Rachel Reeves said during an interview on Sky News' Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips. Her comments follow Birmingham City Council effectively declaring bankruptcy after being hit with a £760m bill to settle equal pay claims.
' During the Sky News interview, Ms Reeves also said scrapping the non-dom tax status is 'an utter humiliation for this government'. 'The last budget of this parliament - they've had 14 years and they use this moment to close a non-dom tax loophole that everyone has been aware of for years,' she added.
