The political pressure surrounding Keir Starmer intensified on Tuesday after safeguarding minister Jess Phillips resigned from the government, criticising the Labour leadership and accusing it of lacking the determination required to drive meaningful reforms.
Phillips announced her resignation in a strongly-worded letter, arguing that intentions alone were insufficient to address the country’s growing challenges.
“Deeds not words matter,” she stated, as she accused the administration of failing to act decisively on key issues.
