Ex-Sun editor David Dinsmore to take up government communications role

David Dinsmore, the former editor of the Sun newspaper, will be taking on a senior communications role within the UK government. Dinsmore will be a civil servant, rather than a political adviser, and his appointment is aimed at improving the government's overall communications strategy. The role is distinct from the position of the No 10 director of communications. Dinsmore reportedly impressed the Leader of the Opposition, Keir Starmer, during the interview process, leading to his selection for this high-profile government communications role.
