Suggestions the shock appointment of a controversial former UK PM as Foreign Secretary aims to save the Conservatives' sinking ship.

David Cameron will replace Suella Braverman, who was fired after accusing police of double standards in handling protests.

Cameron resigned as PM in 2016, with one of the lowest popularity ratings in recent history.

Former Kiwi High Commissioner to the UK, Sir Lockwood Smith, says he has a wealth of experience.

"And right at this stage, I think what the Conservatives need is to just settle things down a bit, because their polling numbers aren't good- and they've got an election coming up next year."
