Jacob Rees-Mogg has been appointed UK minister for Brexit opportunities and government efficiency, Downing Street confirmed on Tuesday.
His appointment is the first in what is expected to be a small reshuffle of UK prime minister Boris Johnson’s ministerial team.
Mr Rees-Mogg, a leading advocate for Brexit, was previously leader of the House of Commons – a role overseeing government business in parliament.
The shake-up of the ministerial team follows the appointment of Stephen Barclay as Mr Johnson’s chief of staff and comes as Mr Johnson seeks to refresh his administration following the partygate row.
The role, effectively a sideways move in terms of seniority, will make Mr Rees-Mogg a full member of the cabinet with chief whip Mark Spencer taking on Mr Rees-Mogg’s former role.
Mr Spencer, a trusted ally of Mr Johnson, has been widely criticised by Conservative MPs over a series of missteps, including whipping them to support disgraced MP Owen Paterson. As leader of the House, Mr Spencer will now oversee the passage of government legislation.
Other changes are expected imminently, including a new chief whip.
The changes come amid a wider shake-up of the team around Mr Johnson, as the prime minister seeks to reassure mutinous Conservative MPs following weeks of terrible headlines about alleged lockdown-breaking parties, now being investigated by police.
Last Thursday, four senior No 10 aides quit or were pushed out: Johnson’s long-standing policy chief Munira Mirza; Dan Rosenfield, his chief of staff; Martin Reynolds, his principal private secretary, and his director of communications, Jack Doyle.
Surprise
While Ms Mirza’s departure was a surprise – her resignation letter condemned Mr Johnson for falsely linking Keir Starmer to the failure to bring paedophile Jimmy Savile to justice – the other three had been tipped to leave amid the fallout from the party claims.
Mr Johnson’s new chief of staff is Steve Barclay, already the Cabinet Office minister, who will lead efforts to integrate his department with a new Office of the Prime Minister and liaise with backbenchers over areas such as future policy.
In place of Mr Doyle, Mr Johnson appointed Guto Harri as director of communications, who held the same role for Mr Johnson when he was mayor of London.
Ms Mirza was swiftly replaced by Andrew Griffith, a former investment banker and Sky executive who entered parliament in 2019.
This internal reshuffle has faced some criticism. Some Tory MPs from northern “red wall” areas were critical of Mr Griffith, who represents a safe seat in West Sussex, being handed a role shaping new government ideas.
Mr Barclay’s role as an MP, minister and chief of staff raised eyebrows as to the potential workload, while Mr Harri has been immediately embroiled in controversy.
In his first full day in the job, Mr Harri have an interview in which he described Mr Johnson as “not a complete clown”, while later a report said Mr Harri lobbied a former chief of staff at Downing Street not to ban Chinese technology company Huawei over spying fears. –Guardian and Reuters
