David Cameron, who served as the UK Prime Minister from 2010 to 2016, made a surprising return to government in November 2023 when he was appointed Foreign Secretary under Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. To take on the role, he was granted a peerage, becoming Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton, and took a seat in the House of Lords. His tenure as Foreign Secretary lasted until July 2024, during which he played a key role in shaping the UK’s foreign policy and diplomatic relations.

McCluskey also encouraged trade unionists to engage in direct and traditional industrial action against government cuts and pension reforms, stating it would be "just the beginning of a series of long disputes". He expressed concerns over restrictions on trade unions and vowed to resist any attempts to undermine their human right to strike action.
