Kevin Hollinrake's comments come after latest figures show that the economy grew by 0.1% in November says the economic "black hole" that Labour claims it inherited from the previous Conservative government is "self-inflicted" and was caused by pay rises given to public sector workers "without any negotiation, without any strings attached in terms of productivity".

As the deadline to prevent a government shutdown rapidly approaches, former President Donald Trump has dismissed a bipartisan agreement between Republicans and Democrats. Trump pushed for a controversial new deal that includes a three-month government funding extension and a two-year suspension of the debt ceiling, a proposal that was swiftly rejected by the House of Representatives. With crucial public services and federal workers at risk, Congress must act fast to avoid a shutdown. Will lawmakers come together in time to avert this crisis just days before Christmas?
