I know someone who works closely with her and I trust their judgment. Frighteningly how a label like Rachel from accounts and odd sounding speech means people think she is stupid. She clearly isn’t 

Anyone who uses that description is dopey af.

Would be interested to know, in your view, what Reeves has done disastrously wrong??

Apart from having a CV full of porkies she has made it an attractive career choice for large families on benefits to continue living that way by scrapping the 2 cap benefit. The borrowing is off the scale. I think I saw a figure of £10b a month repayments on what we owe. For me, and this hits home personally, she pushed through a cruel 20% VAT increase on private school fees. Fine for those who have wealthy parents who won't blink an eye on the increase. However, many children have to go a specialist school because mainstream education in this country has failed them. This increase has resulted in some pupils having to go back to mainstream education and be failed once again. Reeves could easily have made an exception for parents of children with special education needs but she refused. Not only misguided but cruel.

Well done for doing it properly. Yours is pretty much what I expected most on here to answer although maybe Starmer slightly higher.

That's quite an award. One that speaks of centuries old conflicts in the middle east where the West would send their dumbest to face off against the dimmest from the East, in Jerusalem. 

Historic events memorialised now, when Trump has carers deliver one of his representatives to the region.

There should be ceremony for the award, delivered by the Pope. From a distance, for safeguarding reasons.

Whilst I don't agree with the vat on school fees, any kid who needs specialist education should have an EHCP. In that scenario, paying rather than leaving the Tribunal to determine school placement seems unusual. Sure, there's a delay in getting to Tribunal, but getting parental choice when there isn't difficult.

This should be the case, independent schools SEN schools in the whole will need an EHCP in place. With that, its local authorities who pay effectively.
