I think the only way she could've remained in her job would've been if the pro-Palestinian marchers had diverted to the Cenotaph or been involved in street battles with the police.

She would've been proved right.

Some marchers did veer of course and did clash with police.

The pro-Palestinian contingent weren't squeaky clean.

//Around 150 pro-Palestinian demonstrators were detained by police in Grosvenor Place, Belgravia in the evening. According to the Met, the breakaway group from the main march were firing fireworks and many were wearing face coverings. Arrests were made after some of the fireworks struck officers in the face.//

Sunak has done himself a ssevere disservice by sacking Braverman. Even asking for her resignation would have caused indignation in many quarters and cost a lot of votes, but to sack her! Someone must have told him it would be a bold move and assertive of his power and determination.

Big mistake; lost votes by many thousands in areas that might, just might have hung on to a Conservative M.P. and a hardened caucus of unhappy M.P.s inside parliament will be the result.

Be interesting to see Reform's reaction.

Reshuffle and resignations will be interesting.

he's done her a huge favour, next leader I reckon epecially if Sunak loses the GE.

youngmafbog

I really dont care now Roy, its New labour in power.

Sunak is dead man walking. Completeley and utterely a spineless 'man'.

sp1814

Sunak will have angered many on the right of the Conservative Party but the Tories are very very split at moment. There were calls from senior members of the party to sack her and calls from senior members of the party saying she's just expressing what many people think.

He was literally damned if he did and damned if he didn't.

However, the big winner in this may be Braverman. If the Tories lose the next GE, she could challenge for party leader claiming that she was never part of the whole "Sunak thing". He's basically made her a martyr to 55 Tufton Street.

The next few months are going to be EXTREMELY interesting in British politics.

He' adept at back-stabbing; he did it to Boris in order to gain his position & now he's done it to Suella in an attempt to hang on to it, but this time it won't work, it just prolongs the period before he's toast.

Braverman was the only real Conservative in his cabinet.

Didn't Johnson stab Cameron in the back (over Brexit) in a bid to further his career. Then Gove did the same to Johnson, Sunak did the same to Johnson. And, before all that, Blair did it to Brown by standing for a 3rd term. It would seem that politics, in general, has quite a number of back-stabbers within it's confines.

sp1814

Michael Gove also stabed Boris Johnson in the back.

And from the evidence that's been presented by the Covid enquiry, it would appear that getting rid of Johnson was the only sensible way forward.

Great campaigner, terrible leader.

Good grief ken...great minds and all that. I was JUST reading this:
