Key Events Ed Miliband states Starmer will dismiss the Downing Street staffer responsible for targeting Wes Streeting if identified The Energy Secretary rules out future leadership ambitions, stating his previous time as Labour leader was the "strongest inoculation" against desiring the position again UK economic growth grew by just 0.1 percent in the third quarter, affected by the Jaguar Land Rover hack Situation The internal controversy began after allegations emerged about critical background comments from the Prime Minister's allies targeting Streeting. Despite initial attempts to minimize the situation, the conversation between Starmer and Streeting reportedly took a more serious direction. Starmer said sorry to Streeting, journalists have been told. The conversation was short, and they did not discuss the chief of staff, whom the PM is now under increasing scrutiny to remove. Miliband's Response In his morning media appearances, Miliband emphasized the need for the party to concentrate on country-wide priorities rather than party conflicts. Clearly, I think the media briefing has been unhelpful, without doubt. But my advice to the Labour party now is straightforward, which is we need to concentrate on the country, not ourselves. We were given a major election win last summer, a important opportunity to transform our nation. And we have a serious obligation.
