I do not believe she will be jettisoned in the short term even though Reeves is taking the brunt of the criticism for the current plight of the Labour Party.
If the local elections prove disastrous for Labour, I believe Starmer will then wield the axe.

I was thinking that it wasn't such a bad thing. However, when you look at the article, it looks like loads less homes will be built too.
House buying is swings and roundabouts for most folk,if prices are cheaper you get less and payless.Vice Versa on higher prices.First timer buyers have more of a headache.

I know, it's a f***ing pain these days. Can I ever get rid of my kids? One of them's 28 and still back periodically. Or on the phone whining about rent and needing money. The one at home already has half the house - they literally have a floor and a bit of the house. I hear the same from colleagues and friends all the time.
You might as well move into the shed it'll happen sooner or later. 😊

RR crying during PMQs today. The job is obviously too much for her. If I were her employer, I would remove her, then seek to reclaim the last 6 months wages which she fraudulently took. Masquerading as someone who knows about public finance. I would also take out the Line Manager who hired her. 👍
Give me 30 minutes alone with her, and I'd give her something to cry over 💪😁

Rachel Reeves looked a troubled, broken lady.
One can speculate as to whether the curtain is about to come down on her time as Chancellor.

No. A bit less.
The markets reacting negatively because they’re now expecting more chaos and unpredictability rather than the relative calm we’ve had.
Wishful thinking.
She has to go. You know that. I know that. The crying is just the cherry on the cake.
Why? The markets have been as stable as they have been in years because she’s been seen as a relatively safe pair of hands.
It’s the outside noise and politics that have done for her.
She blubbed. In the House of Commons. Because of pressure. She holds one of the top 4 offices of state. Possibly the next most powerful political position to the PM.
There are zero excuses for her to still be in situ by this time tomorrow. You can wring your hands all you like. Make all kinds of excuses. Even perhaps praise for not being scared of showing emotions.
And it makes no differences. She is sat at the top table. She has to be able to sit there and take everything thrown at her with a 'f*** you' attitude. That is how power works. How power is exercised.
