Sunak 'ready to do more' in face of economic 'storm'
Rishi Sunak has warned that a "perfect storm" of global events, such as the war in Ukraine and Covid lockdowns in China, has put the economy in an "extremely serious" situation.
Speaking to the CBI annual dinner on Wednesday, the Chancellor said the government "stands ready to do more" to help families cope with the cost-of-living crisis after inflation rose to a 40-year high of 9% in April.

Shringla emphasised that while the protests ostensibly stem from issues like job quotas, deeper economic problemsâincluding the impact of COVID-19 and the Ukraine conflictâhave exacerbated the situation. He suggested that political groups like the BNP and Jamaat-e-Islami, as well as foreign actors, may be fueling the unrest to their advantage, contributing to the volatility in Bangladesh.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is facing intense criticism from within his own ranks following significant battlefield setbacks in both the Donbass and Kursk regions. According to the Financial Times, soldiers, lawmakers, and military analysts are expressing frustration over the rapid advances made by Russian forces, which have reportedly exploited weaknesses in Ukraineâs defense strategy. The situation has deteriorated as Russian troops have breached Ukrainian lines in the Donetsk Peopleâs Republic (DPR), closing in on the strategically crucial city of Pokrovsk. This cityâs loss would have severe implications for Ukrainian military logistics, with analysts describing the current defensive situation as a âcomplete failureâ and âcomplete chaos.â
