Does Rachel Reeves actually care what people think??

I've always had the sense that she's one of the more ideologically committed members of the Labour right - someone who truly believes in austerity and the importance of not helping poor people.
Rachel Reeves thinks people want deregulation, growth and big infrastructure from government, She’s wrong. They want government that works, better jobs and lower interest rates.
