UK's First Three-Women Cabinet in 'Great Offices' as Mahmood Promoted

Jennifer McKiernan, a political reporter for the British Broadcasting Corporation, reports that Shabana Mahmood has been promoted to home secretary by Sir Keir Starmer in a major ministerial reshuffle following the resignation of Angela Rayner.
This is the first time the UK has had three women in the so-called 'great offices of state' alongside the prime minister, with Rachel Reeves remaining as Chancellor.
Angela Rayner resigned as deputy prime minister and housing secretary after failing to pay enough tax on her £800,000 flat in Hove.
