“I have no doubt that she will prove her mettle in the new role, and continue to serve as a glowing example of what this country stands to benefit if we continue our commitment to building and leveraging young talent.

“I congratulate Badenoch and her family and wish her the very best as she sets about implementing the trade policies of the new UK leadership.”
