    George Eustice has become the seventh Environment Secretary since 2010, after replacing Theresa Villiers who was sacked as part of Boris Johnson’s cabinet reshuffle today (13 February).  Before departing in February, Eustice had been in Defra since October 2013 Eustice, the MP for Camborne, Redruth and Hayle, was re-instated to a Ministerial post at the Department for Food, the Environment and Rural Affairs (Defra), covering Agriculture, Fisheries and Farming in July. He had left the post at the start of 2019 over Brexit concerns, but has today been elevated to environment minister, replacing Villiers who only received the position in the July reshuffle. Before the brief hiatus, Eustice had been a Defra minister since October 2013. Click here to read more.
