UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has defended his health secretary, Wes Streeting, who was rumoured to be planning a leadership challenge.
When questioned in Parliament by Conservative leader Kemi Bedenoch about the state of the Labour Party, Starmer said: "Mr speaker, my focus each and every day is on rebuilding and renewing our country but let me be absolutely clear any attack on any member of my cabinet is completely unacceptable and the health secretary, Mr. Speaker, in relation to, the health secretary he promised before the election that in the first year of a Labour government.We would deliver two million extra appointments.We didn't deliver two million, or three, or four,we delivered five million extra appointments. Today, the health secretary is in Manchester where he's announcing that because of the action he has taken to abolish NHS England, he's putting more people on the front line. He's doing a great job as is the whole of my cabinet."
