Sir Keir Starmmer refused to say that Chancellor Rachel Reeves would stay at his post until the end of Parliament, in a wonderful question to the last night.
Reeves, who sat beside starmer during pmqs on Wednesday, was visibly upset and appeared to shed a tear as the prime minister stopped short of giving her his full backing when asked about her future by conservative leader kemi badenoch.
Starmer, previously backed by public Reevessaid he “thanked” for the chancellor but the absence of full support support will raise thinking that his position is in his position.
Reeves became targeted for rebel anger due to management work in welfare reforms.
Badenoch said the chancellor was used by Starmer as a “man’s shield for his inability” and said he looked “miserable”.
While PMQ reeves ended from the chamber of his sister and with the MP, Ellie Reeves, who fled to the Labor Party. He appeared to squeeze the chancellor’s hand while he guided him from the chamber.
A worker’s spokesman, asked why the reeves showed no fear, said he had no comment and meant treasuries.
He added: “The chancellor is no longer. He has full support of the Prime Minister.”
Speaker of the spokesman says the Prime Minister used to say Reeves serve as a chancellor for the whole parliament. “He should not repeat (that) every time.”
Asked if Reeves offered his resignation, the spokesman: “No.” He said Reeves and Starmer continue to deliver reform.
Asked what Chancellor markets can show up to cry at home of Commons, the spokesman said: “We do not comment on markets.”
Wednesday gilts fall as investors grow nervous about the UK priest at the public party, with 10.10 percent, the largest transition from the global bond sold in April.
“The conclusion from the action of the Gente Profice this afternoon is that Rachel’s reality wants,” says Mike Riddell, a fund manager at Fideldifide International.
The U-turn U-Turn on Tuesday has made the reform of the benefit of its welfare to be defeated, but the Prime Minister is required in any extent with a saving of high runs in the long run.
The reeves position is more interested in investors as he promised to follow through strict fiscal rules. But he operates with a small fiscal headroom and the U-turn to the Welfare U-Turn on a £ 5bn hole in his plans.
There is an increasing assumption that he needs to increase the tax spending plans or something more challenging with MPs backbench.
