Rachel Reeve’s CV

None of her mistakes were particularly serious.

However, what bothers me is that it shows an element of carelessness, slap dashery, not checking documents carefully, which are not things I want to see in soeone handling the country's economy or tax system.

The faults in Rachel Reeves that led to this failure to check the facts and think things through can be seen in the sudden removal of the WFA and several other of her foolish actions that have caused maximum fuss over relatively simple activities which could still have been done, but done differently.

My husband was in business banking with a major global bank for 25 years.

To investigate staff was an expensive and lengthy process, first hint of an investigation and they would be off sick!
It was easier to I’ve them a “voluntary redundancy “ package.

I knew of a man that spent a few hundred pounds on personal stuff using his employer's credit card. He was sent to prison for 2 years. Rachael reeves should be in prison.

Just to clarify, are we talking about a CV or an entry on Linkedin here?

Whatever, she’s still a liar

Why on earth does KS insist on supporting her? A chancellor who doesn't appear to know that a decade = 10 years and that 5 years and a few weeks isn't just short of a decade!!!

That's like my grandson saying he's "nearly five", when he had his fourth birthday last month!

Rachel Reeves is a silly lady!

She has lied about her credentials, is doing a lousy job and it’s time she went. I hope someone uncovers evidence that she did know about the investigation into her expenses, contrary to what she claims. What a coincidence that she ‘took voluntary redundancy’ at that time. Her position is already looking pretty untenable, the press won’t stop digging and someone will be more than happy to cough for £££.

Well I’ve given up being surprised at the sheer stupidity of politicians even, or especially, the top ones.
A lot of people embroider their CV’s to get a job but don’t usually carry on embroidering them in public speeches even up until recently saying ‘the best part of a decade’ about her time at the BOE.Also it looks highly unlikely that she didn’t know there were concerns about her spending habits at HBOS.
It was a deception and not only makes people wonder about her competence but also her honesty.
Well before the GE she should have corrected/amended that CV when she went into politics actually would have been the best time to do that.

Maybe that's why she appears to be out of her depth as Chancellor. She clearly hasn't got the credentials for such an important job no matter what her embellished CV might say.
Reeves should go and take Bridget Phillipson with her.

This ⬆️ and along with Phillipson take Starmer, Rayner, Miliband, Cooper and Lammy also.

Matt's cartoon spot-on as usual. Absolutely brilliant!

Just seen this!

There seems to be a lot of obfuscation going on and several Labour MP's are closing ranks to defend her and put up a smoke screen.
What have THEY got to hide then?

Apologies if my apostrophe has migrated - blame autocorrect 🤣
