LONDON, Shawwal 4, 1438, Jun 28, 2017, SPA -- Britain's Conservative minority government faced its first test in Parliament since the June 8 election on Wednesday due to an opposition demand for an end to public spending cuts, AP reported. The main opposition Labour Party called for a pay raise for public-sector workers, whose salaries have been capped during seven years of austerity, and an end to cuts to police and firefighting budgets. Labour's proposal came after several days of debate on last week's Queen's Speech, which laid out government plans for the next two years. A vote will take place in Parliament at around 7 p.m. (1800 GMT; 2 p.m. EDT). --SPA 21:19 LOCAL TIME 18:19 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w437375
