Amid the global financial jitters triggered by Donald Trump’s latest tariffs, Rachel Reeves has stepped up to reassure the public, revealing she’s already been in touch with the Bank of England to get a grip on what’s going on.

With markets reacting to the shockwaves sent through the global economy, Reeves said Bailey was confident about how the UK’s financial systems were holding up.
