Second Frontbench Team of Vince Cable
Political group within UK Parliament
Liberal Democrats
12 / 650 (2%)
On 20 July 2017, Sir Vince Cable became Leader of the Liberal Democrats after facing no competition. He was the oldest leader of a major UK political party since Sir Winston Churchill. Upon taking office Cable made no significant reshuffle to his Frontbench Team, so the line-up remained much as it was inherited from Tim Farron. Cable later completed his first reshuffle a few weeks after the Party's 2017 Autumn Conference.[1]
Cable previously served as Acting Leader of the Liberal Democrats following the resignation of Menzies Campbell in 2007.
