Rachel Reeves crying in PM questions

[AnotherBrickIn]

She’s visibly crying

Well, she's only human and she has mass fucked up. I'd probably cry too, if I had made such a colossal mess of my job.

Seriously ?
Has the heat got to her do you think ?

So out of her depth in that role. As is two tier.

It was uncomfortable to watch, yes she’d fucked up but I feel for her. Let’s be honest she doesn’t really make these decisions on her own does she

Was she crying? She looked more like she hadn’t slept all night. No news outlets reporting on this that I can see

I think I would keel over first and get carted out before I’d let the tears out in front of people at work

She was 100% crying. Tears rolling down her face, lip wobbling - looked like she was about to break down

Or in front of the entire country! Sky News started going on about it as soon as PMQ finished

It is being reported. BBC has it on the live feed that they’ve asked why. Now obviously it’s possible that there are personal things going on too but she seemed broken in those clips.

The clueless offered it to her and she foolishly (or maybe arrogantly) accepted.
She needs to resign.

Well I hope someone is looking after her. I say that as a Tory voter.

It’s not good

What’s your AIBU?

Starmer is more accountable on this, he won’t see it.

Bozo and Trump have had a terrible effect on politics. Its OK for them to make promises they can't keep, their fans will accept it as part of their 'charm'. Not ok for your bog standard politician, who will be made to eat his or her words as soon as an opportunity arises.

Sorry for being ignorant, I've not been closely following the news, how has she fucked up ?

AIBU to think it’s time Starmer resigned. There you go.

Feel for her? Seriously?! The misery that that woman and the rest of her cronies have inflicted on many, many people, she and the whole lot of that rotten party should all be out of a job. Sooner the next GE comes around the better. And no I'm not going to vote Tory next time as they are responsible for letting this insane lot get into power in the first place. Not so smug now is she. Hopefully Jess Philips will be next, awful woman! Closely followed by Two Tier Keir!!

Seriously ?
Has the heat got to her do you think ? Im

She probably will and that that she's crying. Personally I'd see the rest of the HoC in hell before I'd cry in front of them.

knee jerk reaction: so what. She needs a nice period of reflection about what kind of politics she wants to practice

Actually, that's all i have. Zero sympathy. Is Starmer crying? no. She needs to toughen up.

There's no rationale behind her decisions, either politically or economically.

e.g. taking away the winter fuel allowance - first announcement for the new government - saved a pittance and was terrible optics impacting on those just above pension credit - they could easily taken it away from higher rate taxpayers - much more acceptable

the talk about reducing the annual £20k allowance into a cash isa - I hope she doesn't do this - surely sensible savers should be encouraged not punished? Again politically it looks bad, and economically it won't have the desired effect that people will invest in British stocks and shares instead They won't.

I would never have voted Tory, as I believe in the fundamentals of a Labour government - however this new Government is not Labour - I'm not sure they have any core beliefs at all. I feel duped and an idiot for voting for this lot.

I bet reform are rubbing their hands in glee. They are being handed the country on a plate.

He should realise how bad he is, that would help.

I think there should be a vote of no confidence against the PM.
