Boris Johnson news LIVE: Prime Minister begins Cabinet reshuffle after welcoming new MPs to Westminster

Boris Johnson welcomed his new cohort of Conservative MPs to Westminster today and has begun to reshape his inner circle.

The PM was set to address them in a private speech in the House of Commons, ahead of a Government reshuffle and the swearing-in of MPs on Tuesday.

Nicky Morgan is to be made a life peer and remain as Culture Secretary, while Simon Hart has been appointed Welsh Secretary.

Meanwhile, Labour modernisers rallied behind Corbyn-critic Lisa Nandy as the race to replace him as party leader gathered pace.
