Rachel Reeves – 2026 Comments on Nigel Farage By-Election

The comments made by Rachel Reeves, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on 8 July 2026.

It is a farce and a desperate distraction, and the people of Clacton deserve better.

But if he wants to spend the summer arguing with a bin, I won’t stop him.
