During PMQs, Tory leader Kemi Badenoch had attacked Mr Starmer and Ms Reeves saying: “She looks absolutely miserable! She looks absolutely miserable. Labour MPs are going on the record to say that the Chancellor is toast, and the reality is she is a human shield for his incompetence.”

Britain’s Chancellor Rachel Reeves had an emotional meltdown in the UK parliament. The finance minister was seen crying during Prime Minister’s Questions (PMQs) with the Opposition’s Kemi Badenoch saying she looked ‘absolutely miserable’.

Rachel Reeves, Britain’s most senior finance official, appeared visibly upset in the House of Commons on Wednesday, as Prime Minister Keir Starmer was asked about her position.
