In British politics, the Shadow Cabinet is the group of top-rank spokespersons for the main opposition party who each 'shadow' or mirror the interests of an individual cabinet minister: Shadow Home Secretary, Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer, etc. The Shadow Cabinet is headed by the Leader of the Opposition, who is, in effect, the shadow Prime Minister, though that title is never used.
