What would any of these men do differently as Chancellor to Reeves? Where is she going against the express wishes of No. 10 or government manifesto pledges?

The problem nobody (particularly in the right leaning media) wants to address is that this has far more to do with the general path the UK has been on for 15+ years than anything Reeves has done. What would the Tories have done differently that would've avoided this Gilt issue?

Lived in a universe where Trump wasn't deliberately spooking markets so that he can stop doing it in a week's time and say how much better the markets are now he is President?

Much longer than 15 years, really. At least since 1947 with the Town and Country Planning Act.

The right leaning media just wants a scalp

Whether a man or not, the next chancellor won't repeatedly and unnecessarily box in the government and the Chancellor him/herself. Most of the reputational damage/risk is from unforced errors - breaking unnecessary pledges

Most of these men would not wear a bra.

That would be an absurd reason to ditch her. One might do it if a key part of the way out was regular tax rises and someone had to be the scapegoat for breaking all those promises.
Any other reason seems far-fetched.

She is sobriety personified.

Its not as if the bond issue is UK specific at present, its just that the UK had a worse starting point than many other countries.
