David Cameron has been named the UK's new Foreign Secretary. 

It comes seven years after he quit as PM over the outcome of his Brexit referendum. 

King Charles has approved giving Cameron a seat in Britain's House of Lords, allowing him to return to government as a minister despite no longer being an elected MP. 

France Correspondent, Catherine Field, told Mike Hosking that there is relief in various places in Europe that the new Foreign Secretary is a moderate. 

She said that they’re pleased that it’s someone they know, and someone who is going to speak their language.
