UK Prime Minister, Theresa May began a reshuffle of her cabinet yesterday, to fill the open posted. The reshuffle kept many of the key ministers in their positions, including Boris Johnson and Philip Hammond, however the reshuffle showed a lack of authority as May was unable to move ministers Jeremy Hunt and Justine Greening, with Greening resigning rather than accepting the new position. The sterling held steady, with no announcements being able to push it in either direction.
