3. Now it's musical chairs

Fri Sep 5, 2025, 12:38 PM

Friday

Shabana Mahmood from Justice to Home; Yvette Cooper from Home to Foreign; David Lammy from Foreign to Justice, plus picking up "Deputy PM" (can he keep that if the party elects someone else as Deputy Party Leader? I'd think not.)
Plus several other changes.
