This week British Prime Minister David Cameron and his Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg reshuffled the cabinet for the very first time since taking office in 2010.

The reshuffle of some of the most senior ministers in the government comes amid a stalling economy, a series of policy u-turns and tensions over the expansion of Heathrow.

The prime minister has been accused of creating a cabinet, which is ‘too white, too male and too rich.’

Although some of the key players are staying in place, the reshuffle means the public might see policy changes over health, justice and transport.

VOR’s Daniel Cinna discuss this with Dr Mark Bennister, a Senior Lecturer in Politics at Canterbury Christ Church University; Dr Chris Hanretty, a Lecturer in Politics at the University of East Anglia; Simon Woolley, the Director of Operation Black Vote.
