10 Downing street have today confirmed the following list of ministers (including junior ministers) for the new Prime Minster Rishi Sunak’s government. The list was confirmed by King Charles III two days ago but Downing Street have only today made the full list public.
The change over of power was very rapid and the new UK prime minister has already had talks with President Biden (USA), President Volodymyr Zelensky (Ukraine), Prime Minister Anthony Albanese (Australia), European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Irish Coalition leader Micheál Martin.
As is typical for a new prime minister in the UK, there will be a settling in period but Prime Minster Rishi Sunak has had to step up earlier than normal as the country is in facing many serious issues.
Commons Debate.
In defence of his new position and the problems the country now face the new UK Prime Minster Rishi Sunak said,
“My record is, when times are difficult in this country I will always protect the most vulnerable,” he also went on to say, “We did it in COVID and we will do that again.”
This was given vocal support by the Conservative backbenchers.
