August 09, 2025

SIR Keir Starmer has lost 10 members of his government since Labour won the general election in July 2024. This is a higher number of departures than those clocked up by his immediate predecessors during the equivalent period of their premiership.

The 10 people to leave the Labour Government so far are:

1. Louise Haigh (November 28, 2024): Resigned as transport secretary after failing to correct police records in 2013 regarding a stolen mobile phone.

2. Tulip Siddiq (January 14, 2025): Resigned as economic secretary to the Treasury after an investigation by the independent adviser on ministerial standards.
