Outgoing Conservative Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt and his family leave Downing Street in London after Britain's Labour Party swept to a landslide victory in a general election, ending 14 years of right-wing Conservative rule. Some senior ministers from the outgoing government lost, although several other big names narrowly saved their seats, including Hunt. IMAGES
UK Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt poses outside 11 Downing Street with the red, leather-covered box containing his speech before leaving to present the spring budget to parliament. Britain's Conservative government is expected to use the budget update to unveil tax cuts for millions of workers, in an attempt to woo voters before a general election.

As new figures show the UK is in recession, with two successive quarters of falling GDP in Q3 and Q4 2023, the UK's Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt says that the economy is "more resilient than most people predicted" and insists that the government will "stick to our guns" on its plans to bring down inflation. News of the recession comes as voters go to the polls in two by-elections on Thursday, with the Conservatives fearful of losing one-time strongholds in Wellingborough, central England, and Kingswood in the southwest.
