Former British PM David Cameron returns to UK government as foreign secretary
Former British Prime Minister David Cameron returned to government as UK Foreign Secretary and will replace James Cleverly who was appointed Home Secretary after Suella Braverman was sacked.
Former British Prime Minister David Cameron returned to government as UK Foreign Secretary on Monday and will replace James Cleverly who was appointed Home Secretary after Suella Braverman was sacked.
The reshuffle in the UK government was triggered by the sacking of Suella Braverman after she criticised the police for how it handles pro-Palestinian protests. She was replaced by James Cleverly, who had been serving as the Foreign Secretary since September 2022.
Soon afterwards, it was announced that David Cameron has been appointed Foreign Secretary.
He was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 2010 to 2016 and resigned that year after losing the Brexit referendum. He had supported the campaign for the UK to remain in the European Union.
He was succeeded by Theresa May, his home secretary.
David Cameron's appointment as foreign secretary is likely to please more centrist Conservatives, who think his international experience will help steady the ship, said experts.
Moreover, such leaders have also been dismayed by Braverman’s views on issues such as immigration, policing and homelessness.
