The Labour MP for Hampstead and Kilburn had held the post since January, for the second time.

Tulip Siddiq MP said, 'I’m really pleased that Keir Starmer has asked me to stay on as Shadow Early Years Minister and added responsibility for children to my brief.

'This is an extremely challenging time for nurseries, childminders and other childcare providers. With parents’ fees drying up and rents continuing, I know many face an existential threat and are finding it difficult to stay open for key workers and vulnerable children in this crisis. I will continue to do everything I can to push for more support for early years settings and help the parents who rely on them.
