Dominic Raab has been brought back into the government fold by Rishi Sunak - just six weeks after being booted out by Liz Truss.
The former Foreign Secretary was cast out to the backbenches when Ms Truss became PM last month - but today he was given his Deputy PM job back, as well as being appointed Justice Secretary.
Also returning to her former job was Suella Braverman, who was named Home Secretary just six days after being sacked for breaching the ministerial code.
It comes as Number 10 also confirmed Jeremy Hunt will stay on as Chancellor, tasked with tackling the economic chaos left behind by Ms Truss.
Mr Hunt, who was given to the role less than a fortnight ago following Kwasi Kwarteng's sacking, was brought in by Ms Truss in a desperate attempt to sort out the mess she'd made.
Mr Sunak, a former Chancellor himself, today ruled that he should stay in post, as the axe fell on several other ministers including Business Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg.
Also staying put is Foreign Secretary James Cleverly, Downing Street confirmed, alongside Defence Secretary Ben Wallace.
Penny Mordaunt - who dropped out of the latest Tory leadership race just moments before the result was announced on Monday - remains Leader of the House of Commons.
Dr Thérèse Coffey was demoted to Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs having been Health Secretary, a role that was given to Steve Barclay.
Simon Hart will take on the role of chief whip, while Oliver Dowden is the new Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster.
Gillian Keegan was named Education Secretary by the new PM, while Mel Stride became Secretary of State for Work and Pensions.
Mr Hunt is expected to deliver a crunch fiscal statement on October 31, which will see him undo measures announced in his predecessor's disastrous mini-Budget on September 23.
He had been widely tipped to remain in place, and the move was confirmed in a brief statement from Number 10.
Immediately after taking office, Mr Hunt announced that tax cuts put forward by Ms Truss and Mr Kwarteng would be scrapped after markets descended into turmoil.
He became the fourth Chancellor in just over three months, and the fifth person to hold the role in three years.
He warned of "difficult decisions" ahead and dangled the prospect of spending cuts for all departments but refused to give detail on tax plans.
So far 11 Cabinet members have been culled after Mr Sunak became Prime Minister.
They are:
- Jacob Rees-Mogg: Business Secretary
- Brandon Lewis: Justice Secretary
Wendy Morton: Chief Whip
Chloe Smith: Work and Pensions Secretary
Vicky Ford: Development Minister
Robert Buckland: Welsh Secretary
Jake Berry: Tory Chairman/Cabinet Office Minister
Kit Malthouse: Education Secretary
Ranil Jayawardena: Environment Secretary
Simon Clarke: Levelling Up Secretary
Alok Sharma: Cabinet Office Minister (stays as COP26 President until job ends)
This morning Mr Sunak vowed to fix Liz Truss's "mistakes" and warned of "difficult decisions to come" as he seeks to resolve the economic turmoil.
The new Prime Minister said the county was facing a "profound economic crisis" after the pandemic and the war in Ukraine and he would put stability at the heart of his premiership.
In his first speech outside Downing Street, Mr Sunak said he would put "economic stability" at the heart of his premiership and hinted at looming cuts to public spending as the Government seeks to steady the ship.
He paid tribute to Ms Truss for her "restlessness to create change" but made it clear he was ripping up her plans.
He said: "Some mistakes were made, not born of ill will or bad intention, quite the opposite in fact. But mistakes none the less."
In a swipe at his rival Boris Johnson, he pledged that his Government will have "integrity, professionalism and accountability at every level."
