The Foreign Secretary â in full, Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs â is the foreign minister of the Government of the United Kingdom. The post is considered - alongside that of Home Secretary and Chancellor of the Exchequer to be one of the three main offices of state below Prime Minister. Only one person - James Callaghan - held all three posts and went on to be PM.
The office is also responsible for overseeing the UK's Secret Intelligence Service, MI6.
The current Foreign Secretary is Jeremy Hunt.[1]
