The position of Lord High Admiral and Minister of State for Maritime Affairs is now vacant. I thank Gregor_The_Beggar for their service to the country while holding this post. I hope that Parliament will continue to benefit from their experience and expertise in the sector.
/u/PoliticoBailey is appointed as Secretary of State for Growth, Business, and Trade following the mysterious disappearance of /u/CountBrandenburg (M: became quad).
Good Morning,
Yesterday I signalled my intention to resign to the Labour Party and the Deputy Prime Minister.
It has been my greatest pleasure to steward this government and oversee its work. Despite the odds and the criticisms, it has not only survived but thrived and delivered positive, measurable change for people across the United Kingdom. We have instituted long-term, beneficial policies which will have an impact for decades to come.
When I came into office, I said I wanted to lead by example. I hope that during my tenure, I have stood by this ethos and shown that we can and should work across ideological lines to improve this country, as it has and is working.
I would like to thank the Deputy Prime Minister and both parties leadership teams for their hard work, commitment and advice which has been invaluable during my time as Prime Minister. I wish my successor such good company.
Thank you.

THE KING has been pleased by Letters Patent under the Great Seal of the Realm dated 16th June 2023 to confer the dignity of a Barony of the United Kingdom upon the following:
/u/m_horses
/u/Xvillan
/u/StraitsOfMagellan

/u/darth-nimious will be taking up the position of Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, and will be retaining their current position as Minister of State for Health.
Good Evening,
u/model-finn will be stepping back from Secretary of State for Transport as well as their previous Minister of State role and will return to the backbenches. I thank them for their hard-work and dedication.
u/Muffin5136 will be replacing them as the Secretary of State for Transport effective immediately.
Thank you.
Today I have decided to suspend u/TheVeryWetBanana’s Cabinet and Labour Party membership given the comment they made earlier. The comment was wholly unacceptable and does not have a place in our politics.
When I came into office, I made a point of wanting our politics to set a good example, to be a role model for people on how to engage constructively and positively with one another, however, that comment fell well short of that ethos. I hope they will take this time away to reflect on that.
I offer my apologies to anyone offended or hurt by the comment made and reassure them that this is not the attitude or belief of anyone in the Labour Party or this government.
u/Model-finn will be taking the role of Secretary of State for Transport for the foreseeable future.
Thank you.
/u/model-willem will be taking up the position of Secretary of State for Space, Science, Research, and Innovation.
/u/Frost_Walker2017 will be taking up the position of Secretary of State for Defence, and Minister of State for Exams and Curriculum Reform.

/u/Meneerduif will be taking up the position of Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster (attending cabinet).
/u/markthemonkey88 will be taking up the position of Minister of State for the Commonwealth (attending cabinet), and will remain in their current position of Minister of State for Food Security.
Good evening, all.
I’m pleased to today announce the cabinet of the 33rd Government. When I entered politics I could never have imagined becoming Prime Minister, let alone serving with the Conservatives, but assembled here is a government that I can be confident will serve the British people well and deliver on our shared priorities.
Amidst a cost of living crisis, where ordinary people are struggling, we’re prepared to take the action necessary to assist the British public. But we have priorities beyond that, too, and I’m keen to build a Britain for the next generation. The ethos of collaboration and looking to the future runs throughout this government and our policies, from restructuring dentistry and energy to a strong education system where people can truly take control of their future. By taking the necessary steps to mitigate climate change and reach net zero, we give our children a future they would otherwise not have, while our work to implement the Lords Report on Institutional Abuses will safeguard these children and protect them.
The coalition may be unusual, but our shared commitment is not. Politics is all about improving lives, and I would not have agreed to this deal had I thought it would materially make lives worse. Fears of selling out Labour’s ideology and ethos are, in my view, invalid, and I have the pleasure of working closely with committed individuals this term as we achieve our policies and goals.
This Grand Coalition is prepared to change Britain. I have the honour of leading it, and I can only thank the people who have brought me here.
Now it’s time to get to work.
