steve barclay is no longer health secretary. that now goes to victoria atkins. ckley is now the environment secretary. it has been a very busy day with lots of events. to recap all of those moves lets go to a report from our political correspondent ian watson. these are not library pictures — this really is david cameron in downing street today. he's been given a seat in the lords and a seat at rishi sunak�*s cabinet table as the new foreign secretary. when he left office seven years ago, he promised this. i will do everything i can in future to help this great country succeed. thank you very much. but remember why he resigned. he called an eu referendum, led the remain campaign and lost, so that was not a foreign policy success. and not so long ago, you wouldn't have bet on rishi sunak bringing back a former prime minister to government. remember at his party conference, he said this about recent leaders. we've had 30 years of a political system that incentivises the easy decision, not the right one. 30 years of rhetorical ambition which achieves little more tha

cabinet table that were made yesterday by prime minister rishi sunak included a new health secretary steve barclayvictoria atkins is now the health secretary. so they are the main headlines i think from monday's reshuffle. well, the cabinet as i was saying met earlier this morning. let's have a listening to what prime minister rishi sunak said to his newly assembled team before that meeting got under way. our purpose is nothing less than to make the long—term decisions that are going to change our country for the better and i know that this strong and united team is going to deliver that change for everybody. we've got an important week coming up. on wednesday, we'll have inflation numbers, we'll also have the supreme court ruling on our rwanda plan, and next wednesday, the chancellor will be delivering an important autumn statement. and across all of that, i'm confident we can demonstrate to the country that we are making progress on the priorities i set out at the beginning of the year — to half inflation, grow the economy, reduce debt, cut waiting lists and to stop the boats. but you all know t
