British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak nominated James Cleverly as interior minister on Monday, removing the 54-year-old from his position as foreign secretary, which he had held for a year.

Sunak’s decision is part of his first significant upheaval after nearly 13 months in office, and comes after the UK leader fired Suella Braverman as interior minister earlier Monday.
