Rachel Reeves: PM Cameron 'getting his excuses in'

"Red warning lights" are once again flashing over the state of the global economy, the prime minister has said.

Speaking in a Guardian article after the G20 meeting of world leaders, David Cameron warned that "dangerous backdrop of instability" threatened Britain's recovery.

But the shadow work and pensions secretary Rachel Reeves accused the prime minister of getting his "excuses in early" and said the government needed to do "much more to secure the economic recovery for ordinary working people".
