Transport Secretary Louise Haigh's resignation marks a significant development in PM Keir Starmer's administration, following revelations of a decade-old fraud conviction linked to her past.
Haigh's departure comes as Labour faces various challenges since the July election victory, with her role as a leader in major transport policy making her departure impactful.
In her resignation letter, Haigh expressed regret about her handling of a past mugging incident that led to her conviction, emphasizing it was a mistake not to inform her employer immediately.
