Prime Minister Keir Starmer told the BBC that Chancellor Rachel Reeves will remain in her post for a long time after she cried in the House of Commons following the collapse of the government's welfare cuts. Reeves had advocated the cuts, but MPs forced a U‑turn. Starmer said he worked closely with Reeves and praised her performance. Reeves' spokesperson said she was dealing with a personal matter, while Starmer insisted her tears were unrelated to politics. The opposition criticised the government's welfare policy, and Reeves faces a potential financial shortfall and future budget challenges.
