LONDON, June 15 (Reuters) - The British government will
deliver a statement on the economy to parliament on Wednesday,
the opposition Labour party said on Twitter on Tuesday.
Plans for the economic statement, which may be delivered by
finance minister Rishi Sunak, follow Prime Minister Boris
Johnson's plan to delay lifting most remaining COVID-19
restrictions on Monday, a blow for businesses which had hoped to
fully reopen.
