"Chancellor Rachel Reeves was visibly upset and in tears during Prime Ministers Question Time today. Starmer's press secretary has released a statement saying Reeves is "going nowhere" and she has the prime minister's "full backing". It follows a moment at PMQs when Badenoch pressed the prime minister on the chancellor's future, asking if she would be in post at the next election." Badenoch should worry if she would be in her post at the next election? | |||

All indicators show their policies show falling economic growth. All labour can do is borrow spend and tax. Think about it this way if interest rates were lower the cost of servicing the national debt would be less and the saving could be used for the things you want. People would have more to spend due to lower mortgage payments. Business would have more money to invest. End result growth which would then increase more with lower taxation. | |||

"Have people forgot the 14 years of the Tory shitshow!! FFS kier isn't my farourite but have some sense, goons take more than a year to sort out 14 years of Tory corruption They haven’t forgotten" Labour inherited the fastest growing economy in the G7, and the conomy with the second lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in the G7. Predictably, Labour has swiftly taken a wrecking ball to that situation (one that allowed the Tories to reduce the rate of National Insurance by 4% before leaving office - a reduction signed off by the OBR). Labour must now raise taxes (again), and they must try to cut departmental spending. Their policies have already destroyed years' worth of economic progress. | |||

Too young to remember Thatcher then "Oh yes I vividly remember Mrs. thatcher winning by a landslide because Labour in the 1970s completely fouled up, rubbish piling up int the streets , the dead going unburied, the pound in trouble.

"Chancellor Rachel Reeves' visible upset in the House of Commons today, has been put down to a personal matter according to a Treasury spokesperson. Despite this, her policies need to be under close scrutiny.

"Have people forgot the 14 years of the Tory shitshow!! FFS kier isn't my farourite but have some sense, goons take more than a year to sort out 14 years of Tory corruption They haven’t forgotten Labour inherited the fastest growing economy in the G7, and the conomy with the second lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in the G7. Predictably, Labour has swiftly taken a wrecking ball to that situation (one that allowed the Tories to reduce the rate of National Insurance by 4% before leaving office - a reduction signed off by the OBR). Labour must now raise taxes (again), and they must try to cut departmental spending. Their policies have already destroyed years' worth of economic progress." Tell me brains what did Q1 deliver in 2025 | |||

"Oh to be a fly on the wall in No10. Wouldn't trust Starmer to not throw her under the bus to try to save his own arse. They must all be shaken by the scale of the back-bench rebellion.
Worst government in my lifetime of any party, totally useless. We are in trouble now, surely the country cannot contemplate another four years of this
I can definitely take another 4 years of this compared to 49 days of Truss.
You wont be saying that in before long, this lot are freaking the bond market beyond what happened when Truss was in no 10"Why isn't it leading the news if it was true? | |||

"All they are managing to do at the moment is increase the number of Reform voters. That’s really the worst thing this government is doing right now. No, turning our economy into a doomloop of ever increasing taxes is the worst thing. The Laffer curve will set in soon!"

"Chancellor Rachel Reeves was visibly upset and in tears during Prime Ministers Question Time today. Starmer's press secretary has released a statement saying Reeves is "going nowhere" and she has the prime minister's "full backing". It follows a moment at PMQs when Badenoch pressed the prime minister on the chancellor's future, asking if she would be in post at the next election." I thought it was a sad sight, and no matter what her politics are, making the headlines because you are visibly upset about something is awful. I hope she is getting all the comfort and support from her loved ones and those close to her. Leave her politics for another day - no need to kick a dog when it's already down | |||

"What was the other political event at Glastonbury? Oh yes they boo-ed Starmer. Back benchers finally evidenced a back bone. No doubt there will be some heads removed over this or rather "funding withdrawn" for the ring leaders, (where the whips can't blackm**l them otherwise). Starmer has crashed the party.and in so doing they have upset the facade of democracy that the media are desperately trying to maintain. God forbid we might even have renewed demands for proportional representation, and that would take years for the lobbyists to control, not to mention the additional millions it would cost to buy that many diverse interests! " We have a pm who actually listens to his mps and makes changes accordingly to their concerns and gives them a free vote, yet you don't think that is democracy in action. Have you forgotten when Boris shut down parliament to force his no deal (because he couldn't be bothered) brexit through? | |||

So you were ok with 14 years of asset stripping tory incompetence and think that 1 year of labour has ruined the country.
Get a sodding grip.
They are trying to find ways to get money back, only as they actually are a party of social wellbeing its hard to cut costings.
If only the tory government had thought that before cutting police, armed forces, nurses and doctors pay.
What an absolute melt. "  | |||

"The phrase to look out for is "I have full confidence in (whoever)". They'll be gone within a week!" “Sir Keir Starmer today backed Rachel Reeves to remain his Chancellor 'into the next election and for many years after' - saying she has done an 'excellent job' - following her tears in the Commons yesterday…” 😶 | |||

"Starter and more so reeves both showed poor judgement in her being there in that condition in the first place. Whether it was personal or from a toasting from the speaker is lmmaterial. It proved one thing she is not the person for the job. This was yet another bad decision on her part and she's in control of the countries finances. We really are screwed" The evidence to her mess up will appear in the coming months. If she introduces more changes to grab people's money, it will smell of desperation. Bond markets and their reaction will be important. | |||

"Have people forgot the 14 years of the Tory shitshow!! FFS kier isn't my farourite but have some sense, goons take more than a year to sort out 14 years of Tory corruption They haven’t forgotten Labour inherited the fastest growing economy in the G7, and the conomy with the second lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in the G7. Predictably, Labour has swiftly taken a wrecking ball to that situation (one that allowed the Tories to reduce the rate of National Insurance by 4% before leaving office - a reduction signed off by the OBR). Labour must now raise taxes (again), and they must try to cut departmental spending. Their policies have already destroyed years' worth of economic progress." Exactly this | |||

"...Highest rate of millionaire leavers in the entire world..." If our economy (any economy for that matter) is so reliant on a small number of rich people that it can’t cope without them, then we really are fucked beyond redemption. | |||

Allows Starmer to get rid of her without it looking like another U-turn or his poor judgement in appointing her. " I completely agree with you Beefandfur. It does seem like a carefully managed narrative to protect both Starmer's and Reeves' public images. By framing her departure as due to "personal reasons," it gives the appearance of a voluntary decision rather than a forced exit. This way, Starmer can distance himself from potential criticism about his judgement in appointing her, while Reeves can exit with some semblance of dignity intact. It's a classic move in politics, where the optics are managed to shield those in power, often at the expense of transparency and genuine accountability. The public gets a sanitised version of events, while the politicians' reputations are preserved – a familiar pattern in the bizarre world of politics. | |||

"Whilst I don't care much for politicians, I'd love to know which boneheaded halfwit thought it would be a good idea to reduce benefits to disabled people especially after the furore over the winter fuel cuts. Did no one in the cabinet have the balls to say Hold on a minute, what are we doing here? Does the entire cabinet have a tin ear? While Kier, Rachel Liz Kendall et al,believe they are always right i find it incredible no one offered advice to the contrary " where have you been... they did, all 120 back benchers did! That's why we have an ongoing shambles in batshit Britain! Rach is blubbing because she knows its all over for her! Her slip is showing and is about to be rudely tugged off! | |||

"Thank you. It’s always interesting to know what Google AI writes on a subject. 🙄 Mr _lackbootz, I'd like to encourage a more constructive conversation here. We've had more than our share of disagreements lately within the Forum, so perhaps we can try to keep the discussion respectful and free of ill-mannered offensive remarks? I respectfully suggest that we focus on the substance of the argument rather than speculating about the author's credentials or background. Let's concentrate on the content and engage in a productive dialogue, avoiding speculation or personal remarks. I'm confident we can have a thoughtful discussion in a courteous and respectful manner and I hope you are of the same mind too. It’s always so kind of you to look up from your pulpit to give us all a brief sermon on how we should conduct ourselves. 🙄 Your kindly constructive and respectfully productive and thoughtfully courteous remarks made to Sara Jevo were an example to us all… 🙃 Pointing out that you spend far too much time copying and pasting turgid auto-generated verbiage from the internet is not a personal and offensive remark. It’s simply a statement of fact. I’ve found almost identical paragraphs to some of those you’ve added by putting a few questions into AI about Rachael Reeves. Why you keep doing this, nobody knows. Why you keep getting shirty when this is pointed out by other users when we can all see you doing it, is an even stranger unknown. Mr _lackbootz, If you're going to keep responding with personal attacks and unfounded accusations, there is absolutely no point in continuing. If you'd like to have a respectful conversation, I'm happy to discuss further. But, Mr _lackbootz, Sir, let make it clear:- if your agenda and that of your chums here is to attempt to drive me off site, it's just not going to succeed! Bitter w e e d z grow in the Gogledd and this old lad just isn't budging! 🏴 I’ve made no personal attack on you. I’ve pointed out the hypocrisy of you demanding how others should behave in the Forum when you certainly don’t live up to your own exalted standards. I’ve explained how you will often resort to auto-generated texts about subjects for reasons none of us can fathom. Who do you think is trying to drive you off the site? Who are my “chums”? You’ve suddenly gone all conspiracy theory. " D'oh! Where is Sara when you want her... to pour some words of wisdom on troubled waters! | |||

Non of your business who I support, I'm not a nationalist in any sense of the word, I'm a floating voter, of the left. I do my bit by being open to any left leaning party. I support some possibly most of their policies, yes. However I'm super critical of Yvette on performative cruelty to migrants and Starmer on his vicious Island of strangers speech. I think the disability bill was a shambles and handled even worse!! I think their trying to lean towards reform voters hoping that left leaning people will vote labour when the choice is Starmer or Farage and I hate that!!! No matter how I am in your mind it isn't true I'm labour through and through | |||

"Also interesting to watch Angela Rayner's expression during PMQ/Reeves tears. I suspect she is growing in confidence, maybe Labour will finally have a female leader. Looking forward to her facing-off against Badenoch. More feist less robot. "Angela Rayner as Labour leader and Prime Minister? Seriously?? While she's certainly growing in confidence, her track record shows she's better at playing the victim than leading. Her handling of controversies, like the tax evasion allegations, raises questions about her judgement. She's also been divisive, stirring up class tensions instead of uniting people. As Deputy PM, she's had a platform to showcase her abilities, but her performance has been lacklustre. She's more interested in playing the partisan warrior than working to find solutions. Her policy stances are more of the same old Labour dogma, which has been rejected by the British people time and again. Kemi Badenoch would certainly give Rayner a run for her money. Badenoch's got a sharper mind and a strong vision for Britain's future, and a far greater intellectual capacity. Rayner, on the other hand, seems stuck in the past, clinging to outdated and backward socialist ideals that have proven disastrous and fail the country. It's time for Labour to choose a strong, decisive leader who is in tune with the electorate and can actually lead and unite, rather than aimlessly stirring up division, strife and uncertainty. | |||
