Pro-government narrative

Starmer's reshuffle is a much needed attempt to regain political momentum as Parliament returns from recess. Moving Darren Jones to strengthen Downing Street operations brings innovation to Starmer's core team, while appointing economist Baroness Shafik signals serious economic focus. This is a signal of intent that Starmer will not roll over and let Reform walk into power.
