James Murray's 10 debates with HM Treasury
www.parallelparliament.co.ukHere’s a concise update on the latest publicly reported information about James Murray, MP.
- James Murray is the Labour and Co-operative MP for Ealing North, first elected in 2019. He has held various Treasury positions and was serving as Chief Secretary to the Treasury as of late 2025, with reports indicating a cabinet-level appointment in 2026. This trajectory places him high in the government’s economic and fiscal apparatus.[1][2][3]
- In May 2026, he was reported to be appointed Secretary of State for Health and Social Care by Prime Minister Keir Starmer, following the resignation of Wes Streeting. This would mark a high-profile shift from a Treasury role to health leadership.[1]
- His parliamentary activity has included service on the Health and Social Care Committee earlier in his career, and he has been involved in various finance-related debates and bills during his time in government, reflecting a consistent focus on fiscal and economic policy.[2][5][10]
