London: British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's chief of staff Sue Gray resigned on Sunday after facing intense scrutiny during the Labour government's first few months in power.
Gray said she was standing down after it "become clear to me that intense commentary around my position risked becoming a distraction to the government's vital work of change".
The resignation comes after British media reported tensions at the top of the government between Gray and several political advisors, and revealed that her salary was higher than Starmer's.
The Labour party conference last month was overshadowed by several rows including the alleged in-fighting and anger over Starmer accepting freebies worth thousands of pounds.
The prime minister has tried to bring the situation under control since then.
