The United Kingdom’s new Prime Minister Theresa May can make a mark in Britain history if she is able to resolve the three herculean tasks ahead of her. In the previous article, named “Briferendum Aftermath Series: Theresa May has tough tasks at hand”, available here, http://www.econotimes.com/Briferendum-Aftermath-Series-Theresa-May-has-tough-task-at-hand-235270 we have laid out the task.

On her first day as Prime Minister, she surprised the political pundits both with the picks of her cabinets and with the lightning speed she moved with to do that. She appointed many Brexit backers to key positions in her government and successfully diffused the tension with the party as well as the division. Among the appointees, the most surprising was the announcing of Boris Johnson who backed her rival Andrea Leadsom to the post of foreign secretary. With the appointment of Boris, she has already shown conciliatory capabilities and just punctured the ballooning risk of political revolt within the party.

In addition to Boris, David Davis, a senior conservative lawmaker and strong supporter of Brexit was appointed to the position of Chief Brexit negotiator. Liam Fox, her rival in the race to the top post and the backer of Brexit was appointed to lead the new International Trade.

Despite all the fresh appointees with relatively low experience in the cabinet, when it came to businesses and finances she made a secured and wise choice. Foreign Secretary Phillip Hammond, foreign secretary under Cameron would be replacing George Osborne as Chancellor of Exchequer.

She handled the first hurdle wisely and skillfully, however, next two hurdles, as mentioned in the article linked above, are much tougher, for which she would need the full power of her cabinet behind her.
