James Cleverly has warned Rishi Sunak that he wants to remain as foreign secretary, amid speculation over an imminent cabinet reshuffle.
The senior cabinet minister, who has been tipped in some reports as a contender to replace Ben Wallace at the Ministry of Defence, made clear his desire to remain at the Foreign Office during a relaxed interview at the Aspen Security Forum in the US.
Mr Cleverly made it clear that he wants to “stay put” in the job, as he joked that he was speaking directly to the prime minister from across the Atlantic.
