Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch will reshuffle her shadow cabinet on Tuesday, 2025-MM-DD (the exact date is not specified in the text). The reshuffle will include the return of Sir James Cleverly to a high-profile frontbench role. Initially, only minor changes were anticipated to replace shadow ministers stepping down; however, the reshuffle will be more extensive. A party source stated the changes reflect the party's policy renewal program and its unity under Badenoch's leadership, adding that Sir James will help "take the fight to this dreadful Labour government." Sir James Cleverly was previously foreign secretary and home secretary, and a leadership rival of Badenoch's, having been eliminated from the Tory leadership election in October 2024. He was knighted in April 2025. The specific role Sir James will assume is yet unknown.

Impact Statement: The reshuffle may shift the political landscape and strengthen the Conservative Party's opposition to the Labour government.
