Fast raiders and British force-planning pressure

How would a large German force of fast cruisers change Royal Navy shipbuilding choices?

It would force Britain to keep building cruisers while also funding escorts and carriers, and might even pull capital-ship design toward faster battlecruiser-like characteristics.

A numerous fast-raider force would exploit the Royal Navy's acknowledged cruiser shortage. Britain could not safely pause cruiser construction if German six-inch ships threatened convoy escorts and global routes, yet carriers remained important to anti-submarine doctrine and battleships still had to answer Italy and Japan. The threat would put simultaneous pressure on several shipbuilding programs. It also raises the possibility that the King George V class might have emerged closer to a battlecruiser if fast Atlantic raiders became the dominant northern threat.
