The expected positions were greeted by some ministers, including Boris Johnson’s former race adviser, Samuel Kasumu, who resigned last year after a controversial report by the Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities, which critics said dismissed institutional racism.

The elected leader of the conservative party and Prime Minister of the UK will be succeeding the former PM of the UK Boris Jhonson, who was pushed to announce his resignation in July after months of scandals saw support for his administration drain away, and ministers quit to force him out.
