Chancellor Jeremy Hunt and his shadow counterpart Rachel Reeves were asked what they liked about in an awkward exchange on BBC One – Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg (19 November)
Ms Kuenssberg asks: “Jeremy Hunt, what do you admire about Rachel Reeves?
Mr Hunt replies: “Rachel is a survivor, she’s been in and out of the shadow cabinet and she is still here and that is a quality in politics.”
Ms Reeves responds: “I have been reading he is a keen dancer, a Latin dancer. You learn new things all the time. I was watching Strictly last night and that might be something he takes up in the future.
Hunt replies: “That’s never going to happen.”
