A Conservative Party spokesman claimed the Labour government was “in chaos”.
He said: “In fewer than 100 days, Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour government has been thrown into chaos – he has lost his chief of staff who has been at the centre of the scandal the Labour Party has been engulfed by.
“Sue Gray was brought in to deliver a programme for government and all we’ve seen in that time is a government of self-service.
“The only question that remains is who will run the country now?”
The prime minster has reshuffled his top team with four other appointments, ahead of marking his first 100 days in office.
There are two new deputy chiefs of staff, Vidhya Alakeson and Jill Cuthbertson, a new PM parliamentary private secretary in Nin Pandit, and a new strategic communications boss, James Lyons.
Sir Keir said: “This shows my absolute determination to deliver the change the country voted for.”
