The MP for Leeds West and Pudsey has risen up the ranks to be one of Labour's most influential figures - whose judgement will determine the government's spending policies.
Rachel Reeves is a former Bank of England economist and now the UK's first female chancellor. Alongside Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer, she worked to change the party's image among voters after it suffered its worst defeat since 1935 at the 2019 election. Ms Reeves has sought to portray Labour as fiscally responsible, saying she would never 'play fast and loose' with the nation's finances.
Three years later she was promoted to shadow work and pensions secretary, where she sparked controversy by vowing to be tougher than the Tories on welfare. 'Nobody should be under any illusions that they are going to be able to live a life on benefits under a Labour government,' she said in an interview with The Guardian at the time.
