UK: Suella Braverman departs as home secretary – The Guardian
Suella Braverman is understood to have departed as UK Secretary of State for the Home Department, reported The Guardian. According to them, UK PM Liz Truss “cleared her diary and called off a planned visit amid desperate attempts to save her premiership”.
Braverman was eliminated in the second round of the Conservative Party leadership election after Boris Johnson’s resignation. She then supported Liz Truss and was appointed Home Secretary on September 6.
The Guardian reports that a former Transport secretary, Grant Shapps could replace Braverman. He backed Rishi Sunak in the Tory race.
