    London: Sue Gray, British special adviser and former civil servant who served as Downing Street Chief of Staff under Prime Minister Keir Starmer since July, announced her resignation on October 6th, citing concerns about becoming a distraction. Gray will transition to a new role as the Prime Minister’s envoy for the regions and nations, after just over three months in her previous position.

    “Intense commentary around my position risked becoming a distraction to the government’s vital work of change,” Gray said in her statement, explaining her decision to resign. Despite leaving her chief of staff role, she expressed eagerness to support the Prime Minister in her new capacity, helping to deliver on government objectives across the UK.

    Morgan McSweeney, who directed the Labour Party’s election campaign and contributed significantly to July’s election success, will take over as the prime minister’s chief of staff.

    Sir Keir Starmer thanked Gray, emphasizing her role in preparing the government and building relations across regions. “Sue has played a vital role in strengthening our relations with the regions and nations. I am delighted that she will continue to support that work,” he added.

    Gray’s departure follows months of negative briefings and criticisms from within Labour regarding her influence in Downing Street. Despite challenges, she reiterated her commitment to public service and is looking forward to contributing to the government in her new role.
