Chancellor Rachel Reeves has responded fiercely to critics referring to her as "Rachel from accounts," labeling it misogynistic and unprofessional. A Labor MP defended her, stating it's unacceptable for members of the opposition to reduce her stature in such a manner. Reeves emphasized that her competence as Chancellor will ultimately be judged based on her performance. This derogatory term gained traction due to accusations regarding her CV, which Reeves denies, asserting such comments reflect poorly on the critics rather than herself.
It’s a disgrace that members of the opposition have been referring to the Chancellor of the Exchequer as 'Rachel from accounts', and it is misogynistic and deeply unprofessional.
In the end, people are going to judge me on the job that I'm doing now, that I'm doing as Chancellor of the Exchequer.
I have probably been called worse things; however, these names reflect poorly on those who use them more than on me.
The nickname 'Rachel from accounts' emerged amid accusations that I had lied on my CV, which I categorically deny.
