### 'Anxious' Rachel Reeves' true Budget feelings exposed as tiny gesture caught on camera

Rachel Reeves, the Shadow Chancellor, showcased her Autumn Budget presentation earlier this week at the House of Commons. Although she initially appeared composed while speaking, a body language expert identified a subtle indication of anxiety during her address.

The expert, Inbaal Honigman, noted a striking contrast in Reeves' demeanor: "when Reeves steps out with the red box, she appears confident and happy.” However, this apparent confidence masks a deeper insecurity. Honigman highlighted "one small clue that shows that she is nervous," suggesting that despite her eloquent presentation, the pressures of the moment affected her demeanor.

This observation was further underscored when, "Shortly before stepping away," Reeves displayed body language that hinted at her inner tension. The nuances of her performance reflect the high stakes and scrutiny that accompany significant fiscal announcements.
