Liz Truss, who was Justice Secretary and Lord Chancellor, is the new Treasury Chief Secretary "attending Cabinet". The decision, says the Green Party, shows a "complete disregard" for the environment.
And yet, after six months in the political wilderness - and as is all too often seen in the Old Boys Club of Westminster - privilege and ego have resulted in Murdoch's protege (and Trump's latest admirer) being rewarded: yesterday, Michael Gove was made Secretary of State for Environment and Rural Affairs.
"Fundamentally, I think there is a great opportunity to create an worldwide brand based on the best animal health and welfare standards in the world", he told Pig World.
He previously tried to remove climate change from the geography national curriculum and not long ago he barred then climate secretary Amber Rudd from attending the 2014 United Nations climate talks.
Despite their rancorous split previous year, Mr Johnson immediately welcomed Mr Gove's return to the Cabinet, tweeting: It's a GOVErnment of all the talents.
The Conservative Party gained 42.45% of the vote, while the Labour Party gained 40%, a surge of nearly 10%. The title could see Mr Green stand in for Theresa May at prime minister's questions when she is unavailable.

Police believe one teen on a bike began arguing with Martinez Torres as he approached the group in his vehicle . The public defender's office, which was appointed to represent Martinez Torres, declined to comment.
"We as Conservatives were not returned with a majority and that means that we need to proceed with the maximum possible consensus and that we also need to make sure that the concerns of people who voted Remain ... are part of our conversation".
Prime Minister Theresa May has appointed Damian Green, a close ally, as the First Secretary of State and Minister for the Cabinet Office in the first major appointment of her post-election cabinet reshuffle. And as we enter Brexit negotiations, Gove's past suggestion we scrap vital European Union environmental protections becomes ever more concerning.
Indian-origin Priti Patel will oversee Brexit, according to the Cabinet formed by newly re-elected British Prime Minister Theresa May.
He urged Mr Gove to channel his "trademark reformist zeal" into tackling urgent environmental problems, such as reshaping the farm subsidy system and protecting oceans from over-fishing and plastic waste.
Greg Clark has also been kept on as Secretary of the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy also suggests that work on the government's industrial strategy will not be delayed too much.
Gove's record when he has been in cabinet has been appalling. The reshuffle come as the Conservatives continue talks with the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) in a bid to continue to govern the United Kingdom as a minority government.
