Labour leader seen as likely to appoint new head of civil service on becoming PM after Partygate and leaked WhatsApps
Simon Case is unlikely to be kept on as cabinet secretary under Keir Starmer if Labour wins the next general election, senior Labour figures have said.
Case is understood to be considering his own future after a difficult year in the aftermath of the Partygate scandal and damaging leaked WhatsApps involving the former health secretary Matt Hancock.
