Not yet confirmed by No 10, but if this is true then that's a massive shock.

It's high time that Tories, like me, admitted that this is the biggest political *up in generations. No more excuses, no more having a go at Labour.

could be hot air as there's nothing appearing on others' headlines.
Imagine the mess we'd be in if we didn't have the brightest and best leading us.
It's on Sky News too.
Telegraph now showing but the same as the Guardian as to confirmation.
Question Author
Maybe, but Sky News can't shut up about it now, citing two or three sources.

Wouldn't be the first time I've jumped the gun on this sort of thing. Feels surprising news and a huge blow to Truss, if she didn't have enough problems...
If she’s gone it appears she’s walked rather than been pushed.
Jeremy Hunt, the prime minister in all but name, is wielding his authority.
Wanting a clear-out of the loonies.
If Grant Shapps becomes Home Secretary that will be a massive humiliation for Liz Truss.
Question Author
If she's indeed walked then it surely means the de facto end of Truss. If she's been pushed, then you might wonder if Truss were beginning to try and get a grip. Either way, more chaos.
Just seen a news flash saying the same thing
Do you think Suella is a loony, ich?
out with the ideologues; looks like Truss is trying to get back into the middle of the road.
Yes hard to say: maybe Truss is just trying to do the loony-purge herself.
She's flipflopped all her life it seems. Maybe it was her initiative
ichkeria

Yep...Grant's got her job and he's VERY anti-Truss.

This is all very interesting. Was it her idea? Surround herself with One Nation Tories to placate the left of the party?

Astonishing times.

But hoorah to see Braverman (the Poundshop Patel) out on her ear.
There seems to be a distinct lack of diversity developing at the top in Downing Street.

I couldn't possibly comment sp :-)
jno

You might be right there...although Truss paints herself and a staunch liberal (at least in terms of fiscal policy) she IS known for flip-flopping. Like Madonna or Dr Who, perhaps she's undergoing yet another reinvention
she's resigned as the result of "an honest mistake on her part", says the BBC. Strange wording. Maybe she'll prove to have accidentally broken the ministerial code in 16 places, as others have done before her.
A distinct lack of brains ….
Question Author
Sky News seemed to be implying that Braverman might have been pushed because of a technical issue, rather than a political one -- something like using her private phone for Government business?

"There was an incident [involving] Suella Braverman sharing secure information that she shouldn't have on a private phone... "
Who knows maybe she touched someone's leg at a function.
And we're all barking up the wrong tree.
