Who will be in Liz Truss' Cabinet? All predictions from Suella Braverman at IDS

Liz Truss has been named the next prime minister in the thinnest Tory leadership race ever under current rules.

She will enter Downing Street on Tuesday and begin appointing her Cabinet almost immediately.

The Foreign Secretary has been holed up in her Grace and Favor Chevening residence for the past few weekends to hammer out her plan for the early days - and potential jobs.

The tax-cutting Liberal, who has launched 'handouts' to struggling Britons, is expected to appoint a string of right-wingers and allies to the highest posts.

This despite concerns that, after winning just 57% of the votes cast, she must unite her warring party by bringing her critics into the fold.

Suella Braverman, the 'anti-reawakening' warrior who has vowed to quit the European Convention on Human Rights, is up for the post of Home Secretary.

Old Etonian MP for North East Somerset, Jacob Rees-Mogg, could be tasked with 'leveling up' the north, or business.

Meanwhile, there are reports of the return of former Marmite chief Iain Duncan Smith and right-winger John Redwood who didn't cut the mustard for a top job in 27 years.

By contrast, Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab is almost certainly for the chop after calling Ms Truss' plans an 'election suicide note'.

And Michael Gove has already ruled himself out of a top job, saying his projects were a "vacation from reality".

Defence Secretary Ben Wallace, Wales Secretary Robert Buckland and Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries are expected to remain in their posts, although Ms Dorries may leave for a peerage – and the future of the Welsh Secretary Transport Grant Shapps is unclear.

We take a look at some of the hottest names for Liz Truss' top team.
