LONDON: British Prime Minister David Cameron on Tuesday in his first major cabinet reshuffle removed Baroness Saeeda Warsi from co-chairman of Conservative Party and appointed her as a Foreign Office and Faith and Communities Minister.
Saeeda Warsi is an Asian descendant and the first British-Pakistani woman who has become the Foreign Office minister in British history. Downing Street aides described her job as a “senior minister of state”, apparently inventing a new distinction between middle-ranking ministers.
Lady Warsi announced she was stepping down last night with a message posted on her Twitter account, saying it had been a “privilege and an honour to serve my party”. At the weekend she appealed David Cameron to let her keep the post in order to win seats in the North, telling the Daily Times, “I’m a woman, I’m not white, I’m from an urban area, I’m from the North, I’m working class – I kind of fit the bill. All the groups that we’re aiming for are groups that I’m familiar with.”
Baroness Warsi told a reporter, while attending the US Republican convention last week, that Americans had been amazed that a Muslim, Asian female could hold such a prestigious post; actually, many Tories were equally amazed that she had been allowed to keep her job for as long as she did.
