Rachel Reeves – 2021 Comments on Prime Minister Releasing Text Messages

The comments made by Rachel Reeves, the Shadow Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, on 21 April 2021.

Given the shocking revelations this morning and a serious lack of transparency for months, we welcome the Prime Minister’s commitment to publish his text messages with business leaders in Prime Minister’s Questions today.

Since we also have no Independent Advisor on Ministerial Standards in place, and no Register of Ministers’ Financial Interests published for nine months, these texts must immediately be made public.
