Poppy Gustafsson, the new investment minister, has been in touch with Foreign Investors for Britain

Jason Stockwood has replaced Poppy Gustafsson as investment minister in the latest development in Starmer’s reshuffle.

The serial tech entrepreneur has replaced Gustafsson, who previously served as CEO of Darktrace, effective immediately.
