Reeves Tries Irony



Andrew must repay any misused taxpayer money, says Reeves

Chancellor says she has never met the former Duke of York and it is 'probably for the best'

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor should repay money to the public purse if he is found to have misused taxpayers’ funds, the Chancellor Rachel Reeves has told The i Paper.

Reeves also said she was glad she had never met Mountbatten-Windsor, who was described by one government minister on Tuesday as “rude, arrogant and entitled”.


Blimey...

Net Zero...

Nope, the list is a long one and we are off out for coffee.

Thus demonstrating her own peculiar lack of introspection. Standard for many politicians I guess.

DJ - it's a problem too, this lack of introspection. It isn't possible to respect a senior government politician when such an obvious lack of introspection is much the same as simple, blockhead stupidity. Political debate becomes crude, yet stupidity is what we observe.

Actors covering for stupidity perhaps, but we can't sidestep the stupidity because they pretend it is more than an act.

Any chance of her telling the BBC to get Huw Edwards to pay up as well? It is, after all, public money.

Thought not...

Scrobs - good point, maybe one or two others as well.
