Labour reshuffle: Who’s who in Starmer’s new shadow cabinet?
Sir Keir Starmer says his new-look shadow cabinet has been chosen for their “hunger” in the lead-up to the next general election.
The Labour top team returned from summer recess today with centrists promoted at the expense of the soft left.
Blairites Liz Kendall and Darren Jones join as shadow work and pensions secretary and shadow chief secretary to the Treasury, respectively.
Hilary Benn, a cabinet minister under former Labour prime ministers Blair and Brown, has become shadow Northern Ireland secretary.
Lisa Nandy and Nick Thomas-Symonds, who both shadowed the Great Offices of State in Sir Keir’s first year and a half as party leader, have been demoted to less senior positions.

A "fantastic, historic day" — but is this trade deal really as good as it sounds? President Trump and Prime Minister Keir Starmer hail their new agreement, but there's more to this deal than meets the eye. This isn’t a full trade deal — it focuses on specific sectors like cars, steel, and agriculture.
Trump’s tariff reductions on UK exports, especially on cars and steel, might seem like a win, but the devil is in the details. With the 10% export tariff still in place for many UK goods, is this a victory for Britain or a compromise hidden behind the headlines?
Is this really the breakthrough the UK has been waiting for, or just a strategic move by Trump to secure better deals from other nations? Watch as we break down the key points and potential long-term consequences of this deal.

The prime minister has held a phone call with the US president after agreeing a "historic" trade deal. Speaking from the White House, Donald Trump says there could not be a "more perfect morning to reach this historic agreement", given that the deal has been announced on the same day that Europe celebrated victory in World War II. Sir Keir Starmer replied by paying tribute to the historic, close partnership between the UK and US, adding that "the timing couldn't be more apt". Report by Brooksl.
