When Rachel Reeves gives her first speech of the election campaign today, there will not be any new announcements.

The second was to try to turn the party's reputation around for economic competence with her fiscal rules .Starmer asks voters to trust him to end 'Tory chaos' and protect UK security Sources argue leaders are less and less willing to wade into the increasingly controversial political waters as they desperately try to protect their brands.

It began in earnest in the autumn of 2022, when Jonathan Reynolds became shadow business secretary, with a background of reaching out to those in the financial sector who haven't historically tended to back Labour.In a matter of months, led by the then new director of external affairs Alakeson - Keir Starmer, Reeves and Reynolds met the leaders of almost all the FTS250.
