Rachel Reeves crying in PM questions

[AnotherBrickIn]

She’s visibly crying

Who would be a political? There's fuck all about attractive. Unless you like arguing constantly and belittling others.
No wonder the country is getting shittier and shittier.

If she was crying, I hope someone helps her out. I'd skedaddle - nothing is worth all this crappy shit. I thought she started with good intentions, makes me wonder what happens with the civil servants, advisors in those offices.

She may have wanted to be there knowing the backlash was coming - if she hadn’t been it would’ve looked cowardly

Which ones?

One died, not some.

An ongoing, current riot needs dealing with decisively in order to deter more people from joining in and overwhelming the system.

The failure of some people to act in the grooming gangs scandal, doesn't bear any relation to the southport riots.

Lucy Connolly for the millionth time plead guilty and was sentenced well within the guidelines. No sentencing guidelines were changed to amp up her punishment. Her (and your) ignorance of the potential outcome of her crime isn't a mitigating factor.

This is what irritates many. We want better services for all, not an ever increasing level of handouts to a few.

Crying is an effective way to release cortisol from the body. Beneficial for mental health, certainly more beneficial for relational health than suppressing and then lashing out. I'd much rather have people in leadership who are able to emotionally regulate like this than be stuck in reactive states.

Its not bullying to have no sympathy forsomeone who tried to kill you and millions of others

This might be what you hope is going to happen, but it isn't.

Rachel Reeves tried to kill you? I'd have thought that would make the papers?

Do you WANTED the MPs to vote for the cuts? Against their own constituents views?

I’ve just watched it, she wasn’t crying.

Of course she would. She couldn’t win either way.

Whats your view on the current Labour government @PandoraSocks

Of course she does, because she's a woman.

Didn't see all the Tory men resigning when they messed up. Only when they were forced out.

I agree! I do think the working classes subconsciously think that. I think it’s why they replaced Corbyn with Starmer. Even Corbyn was too ‘out there’

Anyway, all those who are being gleeful about her possible downfall, what exactly would you have her do?

If she cuts the unaffordable triple lock then the over 65s, the biggest voting block, will be in uproar. (I hope my fellow Gen Xers and Millennials are looking forward to our retirement age being 74 to pay for the current cohort by the way).

If she raises taxes then EVERYONE will be in uproar. Even though when compared to other European countries we pay a relatively low amount but still demand European level of services.

If she cuts services then there will be nothing left as they've already been decimated by the Tories.

Can't cut defence because of Russia.

So what would you have her do?

What? There’s tears rolling down. There’s a screenshot below.

What do you think is going to happen?

I voted Labour in the hope of grown up government making decisions in the best interest of the country and yet we have these childish idiots who cannot understand that the predicted rises in health benefits will crash the economy.

That is hyperbolic in the extreme.

I've cried at work before, three times. Once when I had news my grandad was very unwell in hospital, once when I was told in a group Zoom call that my job was at risk and the final time was just because of an argument (luckily it was only me and my manager in that day!) I applaud people who can keep it together 100% of the time, but not everyone can. It doesn't make someone bad at their job! I wish we could all just bit a bit more compassionate. Luckily I wasn't on PMQs at the time, but the one with the job just came from nowhere, I was completely blindsided and there were about 30 people on the call. So embarrassing, but my colleagues are mostly lovely and most of them immediate sought me out to ask if I was ok!

She was. Which is why all the media have said it. You can even see the tears on both of her cheeks @nomas .

How did Rachel Reeves try to kill you?

Taking away my ability to pay for care and to cause me to become homeless would have absolutely lead to my death if I hadn't have died by suicide prior to that

What do you think happens when you take away a disabled person's whole income

Sadly, she was. You can see the tears. Awful.
