Cabinet Reshuffle

I learned recently this week that Suella Braverman was sacked as the home secretary. She was removed from cabinet duty because she criticised  the handling of the protests by the police. Unfortunately you can't throw your weight around when there are 800,000 people protesting. Some of the people were using the Arabic word for war, it is illegal in Britain to teach others to go war or do violence. The police did eventually arrest people that were carrying signs that insighted violence. I don't know if she is right or wrong for her statements about the police but she lost her job over it. 

He moved James cleverly over to her persition and put James Cameron as the foreign secretary, he was the prime minister that resigned after the Brexit referendum in 2016. 
I'm in two minds about Rishi's decision. One part of me thinks it is a good idea to put a former Prime Minister as foreign secretary because he probably has a lot of connections and powerful friends. 

The other part of me was thinking he only wanted someone posh to do that job, he has hundreds of MPS but called Dave out of retirement, the Oxford educated posh man. The other MPs weren't posh enough I thought. 
The two thoughts were stuck in my head like two sumo wrestlers in Hikiwake. 

Hikiwake of the mind....
