To those in the UK - government reshuffle

Truss is Foreign Secretay. It can't really get any worse.

Oh, yes it could !

Raab has gone, also Jenrick and Buckland. Still no news about Patel.

Truss has been an MP since 2010. Given the number of roles she's had in the govt. she can't have been up to much. Certainly her attempts at a trade deal with Australia weren' exactly brilliant.

Truss made Foreign Secretary - strange times. Mind you Bozzer was a previous incumbent.

And what a mess he made of that .

Just rad that Patel and Sunak keep their roles. Raab is the new justice secretary the 8th in 10 years. Doesn't say much for continuity.

Glad to see Gavin Williamson go. Most ineffectual Education Secretary in history.
Sad to see Robert Buckland replaced by Dominic Raab at Justice.
Think Liz Truss will be a good Foreign Secretary.
Very pleased that Rishi Sunak stays in place.
Nadine Dorris - culture Secretary ?

Like rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic.

Priti Patel stays according to Sky

My daughter and her colleagues (teachers) are cheering. Gavin Williamson has gone. He just seemed intent on making their lives more difficult.

Was hoping Jeremy Hunt would be brought in.

Nadine Dorries, I’m a conservative get me out of here.

Nadhim Zahawi education, could be good

What role do you see for Jeremy Laura?

He is also deputy PM. Why ???

I thought he’d be good as Education Secretary. Any role bringing him in to cabinet would bring a bit more balance * Blossoming*

Thanks Laura, it would have been interesting to see what he could do.

Raab is Deputy PM because incompetence is always rewarded in Government circles.

LauraNorder Please NO! Not Jeremy Hunt. I worked in the NHS when he was Health Minister. Breweries and p**s ups come to mind.

Oliver Dowden made 'minister without portfolio' - can there be a sadder title!

And replaced as culture secretary by Nadine Dorries!

Jeremy Hunt - really !
Now out of the cabinet he is very good at saying what should have been done - so why did he not do it at the time ?
Sour grapes in a vineyard.

Several people have pointed out on social media that some times the reward for being a poor Foreign Sec was PM...
