英国工党内部人士对财政大臣约翰·希利即将推出的首份预算表示不安，认为其增长和投资政策缺乏实质内容。1一名工党高级人士直言："我没有听到任何真正的增长和投资意向。"1希利在党派大会上以再工业化为主题发表了演讲，但这一方向未能消除党内对其方案过于保守的批评。1
英国政府的借贷成本在全球债券抛售的冲击下持续攀升。130年期英国政府债券收益率在周四首次达到6%，创下自1998年以来的新高。1巴克莱银行在一周内第二次上调了抵押贷款利率。1全球债券抛售预计已消耗掉前财政大臣瑞西斯积累的£24亿"财政空间"的至少一半。1希利的预算定于10月28日公布。1此前，希利因防御开支占国内生产总值3%的问题辞去了国防部长职务。1
Senior figures within the Labour Party have expressed concern over Chancellor John Healey's upcoming first budget, with internal critics questioning whether it sufficiently addresses growth and investment priorities.1 One senior Labour official stated: "I haven't heard any real sense of growth and investment intention."1
The chancellor faces mounting pressure as global bond market turbulence has driven up UK government borrowing costs considerably.1 Thirty-year gilt yields reached 6% for the first time since 1998 on Thursday, a significant milestone that has prompted fresh rate increases from major lenders.1 Barclays Bank raised its mortgage rates for the second time within a week, reflecting the deteriorating borrowing environment.1 The global bond selloff is expected to have consumed at least half of the fiscal space accumulated by the previous administration, reducing the £24 billion buffer available to Healey for policy initiatives.1
The budget is scheduled for release on October 28.1 Healey, who stepped down as Defence Secretary three months ago over disagreements regarding defence spending at 3% of GDP, will present his proposals at a time when both economic headwinds and internal party anxieties are at heightened levels.1 His recent address to the party conference emphasized reindustrialization but lacked substantive policy detail, drawing criticism from those who view his strategy as overly cautious.1
