LOUISE Haigh quit as Transport Secretary yesterday to be replaced by Heidi Alexander.
Ms Haigh went after it emerged she admitted a fraud charge in 2014. In her resignation letter, she said she did not want to become a distraction and could now best support Labour from outside the government.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer thanked her for her work, including huge strides towards taking the rail system back into public ownership.
Ms Haigh was convicted of fraud by false representation in 2014 after she wrongly told police her work phone had been snatched in a mugging in London the previous year.
