Can The Home Secretary Continue?
https:/
She appears to be unsackable. Some wonder if it's either because the PM would rather have her inside the tent watering the garden than in the garden watering the tent. And if she is given the boot at long last it might lose the Tories votes to the Reform Party, which might very well spell the coup de grace electorally.
Or?

“…but they added Mr Sunak had full confidence in the home secretary.”
If prizes were dished out for saying what the unwashed and un-woke are thinking then Suella Braverman would be garlanded in medals and have a mantelpiece groaning with trophies. The Home Secretary scored bullseye of the year when she said that multiculturalism had failed. A couple of weeks later groups of people waving Palestinian flags and dressed in the garb of the Middle East could be seen dancing in the streets of London as news broke of the 7 October pogrom by Hamas: No further questions, your honour.
Since then, she has made utterances that have shot to the top of the news agenda several times more. Demonstrations taking place ostensibly to call for a ceasefire in Gaza but serving as platforms for those who wish to eradicate Israel and wage jihad in the West have been denounced by Braverman without qualification as ‘hate marches’.

She's undermined the PM, she's undermined the Met, and the PM has disowned her comments.
The status quo is not sustainable.
She's set herself up as either a PM in waiting or to be thrown into the back benches, depending what Dougie Smith decides.
From my point of view: she's running the Trump playbook, without the Trump charisma ... leaving very little of substance.

Clearly Sunak does not agree with Braverman. So is there Cabinet collective responsibility, or not?
Imran Hussain resigned from the Labour shadow Cabinet because he disagreed with Keir Starmer's line. So where is Suella Braverman's resignation from Rishi Sunak's Cabinet? Does she have no principles? No need to answer that ...
