The new government is being fleshed out with David Cameron’s cabinet posts becoming known over the day. David Cameron’s cabinet posts incorporate the Liberal Democrats extensively and are prove that this is a true coalition and not just in name.

David Cameron’s Cabinet

After all the talks of the past few days have settled the Conservative government can start to press on with its policies but its first port of call was appointing all the ministers for the David Cameron’s cabinet posts.

Here are the appointments for the Conservative-Liberal cabinet so far:

PRIME MINISTER – DAVID CAMERON
DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER – NICK CLEGG
FOREIGN SECRETARY – WILLIAM HAGUE
CHANCELLOR – GEORGE OSBORNE
HOME SECRETARY AND MINISTER FOR WOMEN AND EQUALITY – THERESA MAY
DEFENCE SECRETARY – DR LIAM FOX
LORD CHANCELLOR AND SECRETARY OF STATE FOR JUSTICE – KEN CLARKE
HEALTH SECRETARY – ANDREW LANSLEY
BUSINESS/BANKING – VINCE CABLE
ENERGY AND CLIMATE CHANGE – CHRIS HUHNE

There are still other ministerial appointments, especially Home Secretary, to be made but this is the crux of the new Con-Lib cabinet that will go on to form the government for the next five years. They will face a hard time and my become increasingly unpopular as the mammoth financial task facing them is daunting.

With the bulk of David Cameron’s cabinet now known, commentators will focus on who is in and out of the government and what it means for the country as a whole. There will be much debate over David Cameron’s cabinet appointments as people see how these ministers react to the pressing problems facing the UK.
