Will Braverman be allowed to go on, once more, unto the breach of the ministerial code?
Will Braverman be allowed to go on, once more, unto the breach of the ministerial code? (PA Wire)

Suella Braverman had to resign as home secretary in October 2022 for “multiple breaches of the ministerial code” when she used her personal email to share an official document with a parliamentary colleague. Rishi Sunak reappointed her home secretary just six days later.

Then, in March 2023, Braverman was accused of breaching the ministerial code again after she made a direct attack on the impartiality of civil servants. Rishi Sunak took no action against her.

Home secretary Suella Braverman is now back in the news over reports that she may have broken the ministerial code by asking civil servants to give her special treatment following her conviction for speeding in the summer of 2022.
