David Cameron has re-appointed George Osborne as Chancellor as he unveiled the first member of his new Cabinet.

Mr Osborne, MP for Tatton, will also be the First Secretary of State - the ranking Cabinet Minister in the Government, the equivalent to Deputy Prime Minister.

He arrived at 10 Downing Street shortly after Mr Cameron had announced on his Twitter page that he was set to announce a number of Cabinet posts.

Mr Cameron wrote: "I have re-appointed George Osborne as Chancellor of the Exchequer. He will also be First Secretary of State - the ranking Cabinet Minister."

Theresa May also entered number 10 shortly afterwards and is widely expected to remain as Home Secretary.
