LONDON, England – Former Home Secretary Suella Braverman launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Rishi Sunak a day after he dismissed her from her position, outlining a series of policy failures and broken promises in a letter to the Prime Minister. Braverman accused Sunak of “wishful thinking” and failing to deliver on key policies, including immigration and Brexit legislation.

Braverman, known for her position on the right of the party, claimed she had made a secret agreement with Sunak to serve in his cabinet in exchange for clear commitments after the previous Prime Minister’s resignation. A spokesperson for the Prime Minister said he was proud to appoint a unified team focused on delivering for the British people, while thanking Braverman for her service.

In her letter, Braverman accused Sunak of repeatedly failing to deliver on policy priorities and accused him of not being capable of doing so or having never intended to keep his promises. She also criticized his handling of pro-Palestinian marches in London and accused him of putting off tough decisions to minimize political risks.

Braverman alleged that the conditions under which she agreed to become home secretary were set out in a document with clear terms, a document that Sunak had read and agreed to, according to sources close to her. She accused Sunak of betraying their agreement and not preparing any credible backup plan in case of legal challenges.

Reacting to the letter, a spokesperson for No 10 stated that the government has brought forward tough legislation to tackle illegal immigration and has subsequently reduced the number of boat crossings by a third this year, and that the Prime Minister will continue to work towards that goal regardless of the outcome of the Supreme Court ruling.

The letter from Braverman has been described as the latest episode in a long-standing internal strife within the Tory party, by Labour minister Lisa Nandy, who accused the Tories of holding the country to ransom while they fight among themselves.

In conclusion, Braverman’s letter to Prime Minister Sunak has laid bare a series of accusations about policy failures and broken promises, continuing a pattern of internal conflict within the Conservative party.
