A wave of resignations on Tuesday comes a day after Home Secretary Priti Patel announced her intention to step down and join the backbenches once a successor is appointed. Newly-appointed British Prime Minister Liz Truss is poised to form a new government.
Newly-appointed British Prime Minister Liz Truss has kicked off a Cabinet reshuffle shortly after Justice Secretary Dominic Raab, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps and Health Secretary Steve Barclay, who supported Rishi Sunak in the Tory leadership bid, resigned.
The resignations came just minutes after Truss, delivered her first address to the nation. She officially succeeded Boris Johnson on Tuesday, after Queen Elizabeth II tasked her with forming a government.
On Monday, Home Secretary Priti Patel stepped down, announcing that from now on she would "champion many of the policies and causes I have stood up for" from the backbenches.
