Fed Governor Cook sues Trump over firing attempt
Investing.com -- British finance minister Rachel Reeves confirmed Thursday her dedication to continue in her position despite facing challenges in the role.
Speaking to reporters, Reeves addressed concerns that emerged after she appeared visibly upset during a parliamentary session on Wednesday, an incident that triggered market uncertainty.
"Is this job easy? Is it easy to turn around the economy? No, it’s not. It is tough, but I’m getting on with that job," Reeves stated.
The finance minister acknowledged her emotional moment in parliament but described it as a personal matter without providing specific details. She noted the unique public scrutiny that comes with her position.
"I guess the thing that maybe is a bit different between my job and many of your viewers, is that when I’m having a tough day, it’s on the telly, and most people don’t have to deal with that," she explained.
Reeves emphasized her long-term commitment to her role, describing it as her dream job. "I totally am [up for the job]. This is the job that I’ve always wanted to do. I’m proud of what I’ve delivered as Chancellor," she said.
The finance minister also expressed her determination to accomplish more during the current parliamentary term.
