"Labour Leader Keir Starmer Shakes Up Shadow Cabinet, Angela Rayner Takes on New Role"

TL;DR Summary
Angela Rayner, a former care worker who had a baby at 16 and left school without qualifications, has risen to become a key figure in British politics. As the Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, she has been given the official title of Shadow Deputy Prime Minister and a significant domestic policy brief. Rayner's working-class background and ability to connect with voters who may be less accessible to recent Labour leaders have made her a valuable asset. Despite occasional tensions with Labour leader Keir Starmer, Rayner remains an influential and independent figure within the party.
