Second Frontbench Team of Vince Cable

The list that follows is the frontbench team led by Sir Vince Cable from 20 July 2017 to 22 July 2019. Initially, no significant reshuffle was conducted, so the line-up remained much as it was inherited from Tim Farron. However, Cable completed his first reshuffle a few weeks after the Party's 2017 Autumn Conference.[1]
