Six O'Clock News

Available for over a year

The chancellor, Rachel Reeves, has said the economy is "beginning to turn a corner", after figures showed that output grew by more than expected in the first three months of the year. The figures don't take into account last month's tax rises or the impact of President Trump's global tariffs. Also: Sir Keir Starmer says the UK is in talks about creating hubs in other countries for processing failed asylum seekers. And the railway carriage that was used by Sir Winston Churchill has been restored.
