In her first major speech of the election campaign, the shadow chancellor will attempt to woo companies by promising her 'changed' party will run 'the most pro-growth Treasury in our country's history'.
Labour will be both 'pro-worker and pro-business' if it wins the general election, Rachel Reeves will pledge on Tuesday. The shadow chancellor will seek to reassure the corporate world of her credentials in her first major speech of the campaign, promising to 'lead the most pro-growth Treasury in our country's history'. But speaking to an audience of company bosses, she will say their success depends on that of their workforce, claiming only Labour can deliver on both.
'Because by bringing business back to Britain we can deliver a better future for working people, by creating good jobs that pay a decent wage. Bringing in investment to build strong communities with thriving high streets. Putting more money in people's pockets. And having pride in the good and services made in Britain, but exported around the world.
