Other than that a stellar woman.She was also a key player in the Windrush scandal. She somehow managed to get away with that when it came out.

I'm going for Monday. Rumours circulating amongst journals.I'm off to bed shortly so hopefully she will be sacked by time I wake up.
As someone else said earlier, she's done him up like kipper over this; if he sacks her and anything kicks off on Saturday, his hold on his own job would look tenuous.I'm going for Monday. Rumours circulating amongst journals.
There'll be fash trying to get things kicked off on Saturday. Wouldn't surprise me if she's rounding them up herself.As someone else said earlier, she's done him up like kipper over this; if he sacks her and anything kicks off on Saturday, his hold on his own job would look tenuous.
she brags to the Jewish Chronicle no less that he is a Zionist, quickly followed up with familial support for the IDF in her quote. This is utterly different to her husband being "Jewish" - meaningless on its own, and that's what I thought the conversation was about earlier. This quote on the other hand is laying out a very particular political position and allegiance.
So the huge risk is that, even if Suella Braverman got her way, people would not only come out, but they would march independently. That would be twice as hard for police because there would be no organisers on the ground directing events and calling on people to abide by a route and curfew.
Yep this always happens when ministers fuck up. Pm dithers for a few days, says they back them and then fires themSo, Sunak has 'complete confidence' in Braverman, so gone by Monday?

Cocaine to be legal then?on ITV news right now there is a rumours of a reshuffle on the way with Michael Gove as her replacement
It's one of the Great Offices of State. Of course he wants it.Gove? Home Secretary. Oh lordie me, this I have to see. The HS has consistently over the years become more authoritarian, more racist, more... insane. And yet Gove - awful though he is - is pretty much the only person in the current government with an ounce of sense in his head. I can't imagine he's eager.
I did read somewhere the other day that Gove was probably going to step down at the next election. Rather than be on TV this generations' election night Portillo moment.It's one of the Great Offices of State. Of course he wants it.

So that'd make it now or never for the office. No way he passes on his last chance.

Sunak's one similarity to Johnson is that he seems to like weak people around him so that they can't challenge him. Unlike Johnson he's got appalling political instincts though, so who knows what he'll do. Whatever makes him look worst probably.I can't see her getting sacked tbh. Sunak's desperate not to recreate the endless merry-go-round of senior ministers from Johnson's tenure. Moral bankruptcy and endless failure aren't things that bother him. If they were, he'd not have appointed Braverman in the first place. She'd already lost one front bench job by being unable to do even the most basic shit properly, she was a known crank and an obvious liability. Sunak still gave her the job.
So just Hunt then?New Statesman?
Michael Gove is considering stepping down to avoid a “Portillo moment”
