  • So yesterday there was a lot of news out of number 10 with Johnson conducting a fairly major Cabinet reshuffle.

  • But no changes were It's consequential or impactful as the changes in the treasury as part of the post Brexit reshuffle, Johnson apparently instructed Javid to fire his entire team of AIDS, allowing number 10 to create a joint unit with him sharing advisers with Johnson.

  • Apparently, Johnson spring the demand on Javid with no warning, with the former chancellor shocked by the changes.

  • Javy rejected the offer with a source close to him saying the prime minister said he had to fire all of his special advisers and replace them with number 10 special advisers to make one team.

  • The chancellor said no self respecting minister would accept those terms.

  • This isn't the first time that something like this has happened, though, and there have been tensions between the two sides for a while now. 00:01:41.190 --> 00:02:4.310 It began near the beginning of Javits tenure, when Johnson senior adviser Dominic Cummings fired Javits Press Secretary Sonia Con without consulting the chancellor Beyond just personnel, Javid came to heads with Number 10 on policy to with Javad calling for tighter fiscal rules during the election campaign, a number 10 wanting grander spending promises and fewer constraints on spending. 00:02:4.740 --> 00:02:15.380 It seems that with tensions bubbling on the surface for a while, things finally came to a climax, with number ten's demands going too far and Javid stepping away from his post labor shadow.

  • Chancellor John McDonnell commented on Javits resignation, saying that it showed comings and clearly won the battle to take absolute control of the treasury and install his stooges chancellor going on to say that this must be a historical record with the government in crisis.

  • After just over two months in power, Java has been replaced in number 11 by Richie Sinak.

  • Scenic has recently experienced a dramatic rise within the party from entering Parliament only five years ago in 2015 becoming an undersecretary for local government in 2018 and then chief secretary to the treasury in July of last year.

  • Before entering politics, Scenic was a banker at Goldman Sachs and then went on to found his own investment firm.

  • But CNAC showed his real value in Brexit on the general election, with him being a strong Brexit here, Onda, fervent supporter of Johnson's Brexit strategy, even standing in for the prime minister in one of the leaders debates.

  • Regardless, it's clearly a huge leap for C Mac, who's never really being tested in any major ways up until now.

  • And while he did well for the Conservatives in 2019 it's not yet clear if you can transfer that to number 11.

  • What many already saying is that scenic will ultimately become a chancellor in name only.

  • Despite his undeniably strong background and education, it's hard to debate the fact that his obedience and loyalty three conservatives has been a big factor in his selection, and Johnson clearly wants a loyal minister in number 11.

  • At the moment, this is the very reason he wanted to pull advice with Javid.

  • Originally, he wanted the two to be following the same strategy.

  • His strategy. 00:03:49.990 --> 00:04:1.050 Johnson comings and other brexiteers in the Conservative Party have long accused the Treasury of putting a damper on their Brexit strategy with gloomy forecasts of what Brexit could do advice. 00:04:1.050 --> 00:04:8.290 It's being reported that Johnson called the Treasury the heart of remain as well as saying that it spewed project Fear mumbo jumbo. 00:04:8.640 --> 00:04:14.110 So bringing the Treasury more under their control grants Johnson and Cummings more influence.

  • This is something that Javid was obviously I'm willing to flex on.

  • But with a new loyal chancellor in place, it looks likely that Johnson and Cummings believe that the have far more swayed when it comes to the budget forecasts and other economic initiatives.

  • As I said at the start, this wasn't the only reshuffle.

  • Another big shock was the removal of Julien Smith as Northern Ireland secretary.

  • This move was particularly unexpected, considering earlier this year he oversaw the historic restoration of Northern Ireland's devolved assembly.

  • The S T O.

  • P.

  • A nationalist party in Northern Ireland, said that the move demonstrated Johnson's dangerous indifference to us.

  • On Irish T shock.

  • Leo Veronica describes Smith as one of Britain's finest politicians of our time. 00:04:59.380 --> 00:05:0.450 In the rest of Cabinet. 00:05:0.500 --> 00:05:12.150 Business Secretary Andrea Leadsom, Housing Minister Esther McVeigh on Environment second tree Tereza Villas were all removed from their positions on Attorney General Jeffrey Cox has been asked to resign.

  • Chris Skidmore also left the government, saying that he was leaving his role as universities minister to spend more time with his family, as well as that Transport ministers George Freeman on Nusrat Gani are also both out.
