Matthew Doyle is stepping down from his role as Keir Starmer's director of communications after nine months in the position, marking another quick departure from Starmer's team. Doyle played a crucial role in stabilizing No 10's communications, especially following early challenges in government. He expressed pride in contributing to the party's return to power and acknowledged the hard work of his colleagues. His departure allows for the promotion of James Lyons as the new director of communications and Steph Driver as the director of communications (delivery).
When I started working for Keir four years ago, not many people thought we could win a general election and certainly not in the emphatic way we did. That was down to the hard work and determination of so many people and of course Keir's leadership.
I am incredibly proud of the part I have played in returning our party to government and the change we are already bringing to the country. Now it's time to pass the baton on.
To my political colleagues, we've been on quite a journey, and I look forward to cheering you, Keir and the whole government on from the sidelines. I can't wait to see what you all do next.
