The MP for Hampstead and Kilburn previously held the position in 2017 before quitting over the Article 50 vote.

Siddiq replaces Tracy Brabin, MP for Batley and Spen, who was named shadow culture secretary earlier this month.

Brabin said she was “delighted” for Siddiq adding: “She’s a class act and early years has a true champion!”

Shadow education secretary Angela Rayner announced the appointment on Twitter, saying: “Absolutely delighted to announce that Tulip Siddiq has been appointed shadow early years minister and will be joining our shadow education team. 

“I have worked with Tulip before and she will be a tremendous addition to our shadow front bench team scrutinising the government.”
