has pledged to “rebuild Britain” and restore its economic credibility as the party’s big guns positioned it as the party of business and fiscal responsibility at its annual conference in Liverpool.

Reeves said she would appoint a “Covid corruption commissioner” to chase down “every penny”, with any cash retrieved diverted to health spending.
