Kemi Badenoch dismisses Rachel Reeves’ historic position as first female chancellor as ‘low glass ceiling’
Kemi Badenoch dismissed Rachel Reeves' historic position as the first female Chancellor, describing her milestone as smashing through "a very, very low glass ceiling" and "nowhere near as significant as what other women in this country have achieved."
Speaking to the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg in her first television interview since being elected Tory leader, the MP for North West Essex described how she found it astonishing Ms Reeves kept talking about her achievement.
"She's the first female chancellor which in my view is a very, very low glass ceiling in the Labour Party," Ms Badenoch added.
