Rishi Sunak made history on Diwali day as he was appointed the first non-white prime Minister of the United Kingdom in the aftermath of Liz Truss's resignation. Sunak appointed a new cabinet on Tuesday that includes Dominic Raab as Deputy Prime Minister, Jeremy Hunt as the Chancellor of the Exchequer and Simon Hart as parliamentary secretary to the treasury.

"I will place economic stability and confidence at the heart of this government's agenda," Sunak said during his first speech as prime minister. Sunak took over as prime minister as Truss resigned from the post after a short stint of 45 days, the shortest in the history of Britain. 

As Britain reeled from an economic crisis that prompted Truss to quit, Sunak said, "The government I lead will not leave the next generation, your children and grandchildren, with a debt to settle that we were too weak to pay ourselves. I will unite our country, not with words, but with action." 

Sunak's cabinet was also appointed by King Charles on Tuesday, with several names from the Truss cabinet being re-appointed

While Sunak will have the roles of First Lord of the Treasury, Minister for the Civil Service, and Minister for the Union, here's a look at who is in Sunak's cabinet.
