RACHEL Reeves has been ranked the least popular Cabinet minister by Labour members.
The beleaguered Chancellor, who is expected to unleash swingeing cuts next week amid plummeting growth expectations, came last in a poll among party members for the house journal LabourList.
She had a net favourability rating of minus 11%, according to the Survation poll of 2022 Labour members.
Second last on minus 7% was Liz Kendall (below), the Work and Pensions Secretary who earlier this week unveiled £5 billion of cuts to social security.

The most popular Cabinet member was Energy Secretary Ed Miliband, who had a favourability rating of 68%.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer came in 17th place overall, with a rating of 13%. However, among Scottish members, this fell to minus 14% while his support was highest in London and Wales.
The research also found that while 52% of Labour members thought Starmer should remain in post to fight the next General Election, almost a third thought the party should have a new leader.
Among those who said Starmer should be replaced, 56% of people said Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham should step in, despite him not being an MP.
