Keir Starmer's public criticism of transport secretary Louise Haigh deepens existing rifts within his government, particularly regarding her stance on P&O's controversial workforce decisions.
Starmer stated on the BBC podcast, 'That's not the view of the government,' indicating a discrepancy between his administration's stance and Haigh's remarks about DP World.
The fallout from Haigh's comments has significant implications, leading to P&O's parent company, DP World, cancelling a billion-dollar investment, a setback for the government's economic plans.
Following the transport secretary's comments about P&O, Starmer's prompt denial highlights internal conflicts and the importance of a cohesive message within the cabinet during sensitive negotiations.
