Not to be confused with 2021 British cabinet reshuffle or May 2021 British shadow cabinet reshuffle.
On 29 November 2021, Keir Starmer, Leader of the Opposition in the United Kingdom, carried out a reshuffle of his shadow cabinet.[1][2] The slimmed down shadow cabinet, was seen to be Starmer creating a top team in his own image.[3]
The major outcome of the reshuffle was the reinstatement of Yvette Cooper to the frontbench. She returned as Shadow Home Secretary, a role she held in Ed Miliband's Shadow Cabinet.[4]
With the departure of Cat Smith, the Shadow Cabinet now contains zero members of the Socialist Campaign Group, a left-wing faction loyal to former leader Jeremy Corbyn.[5]
