- Reid’s succinct reply “I am currently on the tube” drew supportive reactions, from thumbs-up emojis to comments like “Touché.”
- On Monday’s Good Morning Britain, she challenged Robert Jenrick over viral footage of him confronting fare evaders, including a man who hinted he was armed.
- Jenrick insisted “It’s not about me” when asked why he didn’t alert police to the knife threat, a justification Reid labeled disingenuous.
