On 29 November 2021, Keir Starmer, Leader of the Opposition in the United Kingdom, carried out a reshuffle of his shadow cabinet.[1][2] The slimmed down shadow cabinet, was seen to be Starmer creating a top team in his own image.[3]
The major outcome of the reshuffle was the reinstatement of Yvette Cooper to the frontbench. She returned as Shadow Home Secretary, a role she held in Ed Miliband's Shadow Cabinet.[4]
With the departure of Cat Smith, the Shadow Cabinet now contains zero members of the Socialist Campaign Group, a left-wing faction loyal to former leader Jeremy Corbyn.[5]
