I totally agree with what you're saying about the cabinet ministers. I was saying something similar on Facebook when discussing this with a friend — that listening to Starmer speak, and watching the members of the shadow cabinet smoothly transition into the equivalent ministerial positions with no fuss, no drama, and no vicious internal feuding felt like a weight being lifted from my shoulders. Quiet, professional competence should be the baseline, expected norm, but our political life has been so debased by the depths to which the previous government dragged us that our expectations for political behaviour are in a crater on the ocean floor.
