Rishi Sunak is the third person to hold the role of prime minister this month

New Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has announced who will be in his cabinet following his transition into number 10. Mr Sunak was confirmed as leader of the Conservative party on Monday (October 24) when his closest rival Penny Mordaunt dropped out of the race. Before announcing his cabinet, Mr Sunak said that he wanted to create a cabinet of “all the talents”.

In his first speech as prime minister outside 10 Downing Street, Mr Sunak paid tribute to his predecessor Liz Truss, but added that “some mistakes were made”. He went on to say "I have been made the leader of the party and your prime minister, in part, to fix them, and that work begins now."
