Keir Starmer shakes up No 10 operation with mini-reshuffle
Keir Starmer has made a minor reshuffle in Downing Street, appointing Darren Jones, the chief secretary to the Treasury, to a new senior role as chief secretary to the prime minister. This move is seen as an attempt by Starmer to get a tighter grip on the government's delivery of its priorities, particularly ahead of what is expected to be a tumultuous autumn period. No 10 has faced challenges in recent months, struggling to get on the front foot on issues like the economy and migration, and trailing behind the Reform UK party in the polls. The new role given to Darren Jones will put him in charge of the day-to-day delivery of the prime minister's priorities, as Starmer seeks to address these challenges and ensure the government is more effective in implementing its agenda.
