Labour frontbencher Lisa Nandy has defended Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves for taking a business class flight to the US, saying: "I don't care where she was sitting on the plane".
Ms Reeves tweeted a picture of her plane ticket as she flew out to New York to drum up support for Labour's economic plans.
But eagle eyed observers spotted she was in seat 3K, which is at the front of business class on the Boeing 777-200 plane.
