Colombo (News 1st) - U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak reshuffled his Cabinet today (Monday), bringing in former PM David Cameron as Foreign Secretary in a surprising move, UK media reported.

Cameron was recently involved in promoting the Colombo Port City among investors in the MIddle East, at the behest of the Government of Sri Lanka.

Cameron replaces James Cleverly, who is replacing Suella Braverman as Home Secretary. Braverman was sacked after days of speculation following her criticism of police actions with regard to pro-Palestinian protests in the UK.

Meanwhile, Under-Secretary of State for Primary Care and Public Health Neil O'Brien and Schools Minister Nick Gibb have said they intend to step down for unrelated reasons.
