The Chancellor moved to shore up Sir Keir's position in No10 amid rumours of a push by his own backbenchers to oust him if May's local electionsgo badly.Ms Reeves argued she and Sir Keir Starmer have a clear plan to 'turn around the economy' after being elected in a 'massive landslide' 18 months ago.
