Former Home Secretary Suella Braverman accuses Prime Minister Rishi Sunak of failing to deliver on key policies.

Former UK Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, has publicly criticized Prime Minister Rishi Sunak following her dismissal from the cabinet. In a letter posted on social media, Braverman accused Sunak of failing to deliver on key policies and breaking promises. These include the reduction of illegal migration, stopping migrant boats from crossing the English Channel, and issuing statutory guidance to schools on the protection of biological sex.

Braverman also criticized Sunak's rejection of the withdrawal from the European Convention on Human Rights. She alleged that she had a secret deal to serve in Sunak's cabinet in exchange for a series of commitments, which she claims Sunak failed to uphold. This has led to a growing right-wing rebellion within the Conservative Party.

In addition to her criticism of Sunak's policy failures, Braverman accused him of leading the Conservatives to record election defeats. She also expressed her dissatisfaction with Sunak's handling of small boat crossings. Braverman's departure from the cabinet followed her accusations of bias against Metropolitan Police chiefs in their handling of pro-Palestine protests.

Following Braverman's dismissal, Sunak appointed former Prime Minister Lord David Cameron as Foreign Minister. This move is part of a major cabinet reshuffle that has sparked controversy and discussion within the UK government. The reshuffle also included the appointment of six peers to government roles and the role of Esther McVey as the 'minister for common sense'.
