💨 Abstract
During Prime Minister’s Questions, Chancellor Rachel Reeves was visibly distressed, wiping tears as Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch criticized the government's welfare policy. Reeves' spokesperson attributed her emotional state to a personal matter. Speculation arose, but Prime Minister Starmer dismissed political reasons, and markets reacted to the uncertainty. Despite the distractions, Reeves appeared later with Starmer and Wes Streeting, launching the NHS Ten-Year Plan.
