7:18Now PlayingJames O'Brien is joined by Natasha Clark to discuss the Chancellor's speech at the Labour Party Conference today, ahead of the the Autumn Statement.
Rachel Reeves said: “I believe in a better Britain, a Britain of opportunity, fairness and enterprise.
“I know that country has sometimes felt far off in recent years as our growth, our productivity and family finances all behind. But it doesn’t have to be that way. The British capacity for inventiveness, enterprise, often hard work, has not gone away.
Natasha noted that people are 'pleased to hear from the first Labour Chancellor in 14 years', and that while she delivered her speech, "she looked like the cat that got the cream", delivering a message of 'promise and hope' to the nation.
However, the Chancellor is sticking to her decision on winter fuel payments, warning that the economic ‘road ahead is steeper than harder than expected’.
Rachel Reeves was also heckled by a young man who shouted: "We are still selling arms to Israel, I thought we voted for change Rachel, climate breakdown is on our doorstep."
