PRIME MINISTER Sir Keir Starmer’s communications chief has resigned after just nine months in Downing Street.

Matthew Doyle was brought in as Sir Keir’s communications director four years ago, when the party was in opposition.

He is the second senior member of Sir Keir’s team to leave less than a year after the general election after Sue Gray quit as his chief of staff in the autumn.
