LONDON – Roughly twelve hours after giving his first speech as prime minister of the United Kingdom yesterday, former Chancellor, now Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had completed appointing his cabinet of 31.
A day later, Sunak sat down with his ministers in his first official cabinet meeting to begin the work of fixing the mistakes that he claimed in his speech that predecessor Liz Truss made.
“The PM outlined how economic stability and fiscal sustainability would be at the heart of this government’s mission – acting with compassion and protecting the most vulnerable,” read a tweet from the official page of the prime minister.
The meeting will outline details of the medium term economic package agreed to between the prime minister and his Chancellor Jeremy Hunt.
“The package will contain the UK’s medium term fiscal plan to put public spending on a sustainable footing, get debt falling & restore stability,” reported 10 Downing Street.
Earlier, Sunak had spoken to world leaders including President Joe Biden of the United States and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky.
