Suella sacked, ex-PM Cameron makes shock return as foreign secretary

UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has sacked Indian-origin Home Secretary Suella Braverman and appointed former PM David Cameron as Foreign Secretary in a cabinet reshuffle. Braverman was fired following controversial comments she made criticizing the police's handling of pro-Palestine protests and making derogatory remarks about the homeless. Cameron's appointment marks his return to frontline politics after a seven-year absence. He will now speak for the government in the House of Lords. Critics have described his appointment as a "dead cat strategy."
