The first Cameron ministry lasted from June 2013 to May 2015. It was formed following the election of David Cameron as Conservative leader and subsequent appointment as Prime Minister. Cameron had succeeded Kenneth Clarke, having served as Home Secretary in the last government.

Cameron initially benefitted from the popularity of his predecessor's achievements. He promoted a number of parliamentary allies, including Sayeeda Warsi, George Osborne and William Hague, to senior Cabinet positions. Osborne became Chancellor and Hague became Foreign Secretary, both replacing Clarke allies. Warsi became Deputy Prime Minister (the first since 2010) and Justice Secretary. David Willetts returned as Education Secretary, having been dismissed as Chancellor in 2008.

Following the 2015 general election, Cameron increased his majority and formed a second government, which lasted four years.
