The Tories trying to paint the Shadow Cabinet reshuffle as a show of Labour\u2019s disunity, as well as a possible split between Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner, tells you all you need to know: they\u2019re worried. And rightly so; whilst not the \u2018Big Beasts\u2019 of old, it was a markedly more competent (and confident) front bench sat opposite the Prime Minister at this week\u2019s PMQs. Yvette Cooper, one time Secretary of State and candidate for the Labour leadership (where though endorsed by the Guardian, would lose out to Jeremy Corbyn), replaces Nick Thomas-Symonds as Shadow Home Secretary. Fresh-faced Wes Streeting comes in for Jon Ashworth shadowing the Department of Health, quick to thank the NHS staff who helped him recover from kidney cancer earlier this year, vowing to repay them. David Lammy, who takes over the Shadow Foreign Office from Lisa Nandy, is probably the most controversial of the three \u2013 once an ardent campaigner for a second referendum on the terms of Brexit \u2013 but has earned praise for his passionate Parliamentary style, as well his work on racial equality. He and Cooper both have experience in working under a Labour government. The three shadow ministers they replace retain their positions close to Keir Starmer, but in different capacities.<\/p>\n
