YouTube Description
as posted by the channelRishi Sunak is overhauling the UK cabinet after taking power on Tuesday, becoming the first person of color to lead the British government and its youngest prime minister in more than two centuries.
By mid-afternoon, at least 10 politicians had left the Cabinet, including Business Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg and Justice Secretary Brandon Lewis who both quit shortly after Sunak took office. Chief Whip Wendy Morton, Work and Pensions Secretary Chloe Smith and Secretary of State for Wales Robert Buckland are among other departures from the premier’s top team.
Sunak formally became prime minister at a meeting with King Charles III on Tuesday morning, before delivering his first speech as premier outside 10 Downing Street in which he vowed to “fix” the mistakes made by his predecessor, Liz Truss, in her brief administration.
“Right now our country is facing a profound economic crisis” Sunak said. “This will mean difficult decisions to come.”
