On July 7, 2024, at 8:10 AM, UK's new Prime Minister Stacey Keir officially took office at 10 Downing Street after 14 years of party changeover. In her first press conference as prime minister, Keir announced the postponement of the 'Rwanda Plan' implemented in April 2024, which aimed to relocate illegal immigrants who arrived after April 2022 to Rwanda. Keir emphasized the need for a new approach to tackle illegal immigration, forming a Border Security Command composed of immigration and law enforcement experts and intelligence agencies to combat smuggling gangs. The new Cabinet also includes the first female Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rachel Reeves. Keir's focus is on economic recovery as the top priority of the new government to gain public support and trust.
