4:28Now PlayingBritain’s new prime minister Andy Burnham has begun to form his Cabinet, and has included two Indian-origin MPs — Kanishka Narayan as AI minister as well as Lisa Nandy as culture secretary. While Narayan was born in Bihar and moved to the UK at the age of 12, Nandy has an Indian father. Lisa Nandy has retained the position of Culture Secretary, an appointment under the Starmer tenure. Nandy and Burnham share ties that go back to 2015. She had extended her support to him in the Labour leadership race, a contest eventually won by Jeremy Corbyn.
Kanishka Narayan, the India-born MP who made history as Wales’ first ethnic minority MP, has kept his post as Minister of State for AI in Andy Burnham’s new cabinet. Narayan, who was born in Bihar and moved to Cardiff as a child, is one of several familiar faces retained as Burnham assembles his top team following Sir Keir Starmer’s resignation on Monday. His cabinet blends ministers who served under Starmer with longtime, trusted allies.
