Suella Braverman’s speech…

That sounds more like the Conservative party I voted for! She said all the right things and if she were only able to put it all into practise, this country might get back to being Great Britain again.
However, I don't doubt that she'll be blocked at every turn by those who are determined to destroy this country.

The people destroying this country are the corrupt Tories and their cronies and the right wing media who let them get away with it for their own gains. The Tories pretend to be patriots with their flag waving whilst raking it in for their doners or giving them peerages, whilst value for money for the tax payer is of secondary concern. Ordinary hard working people's quality of life has suffered in the past 12 years and since Brexit our rights have started to suffer too.

It comes to it when the boss of Shell asks to pay more tax and the government have other ideas.

Unbelievable! Some of the faithful only clapped when they saw themselves on the screen, others looked totally shell shocked. She is so right wing, her nickname could be Genghis Khan. I was appalled by most of what she said. Chancellor, PM, Home Secretary - what a glorious triumvirate. Not.

Absolutely agree. This lot are a danger to democracy

I haven't found the speech online yet, but I'll continue looking. I did find this on Sky News though.

Home Secretary Suella Braverman praised Liz Truss as a "moderate" prime minister who has been able to "pull together various strands" of the Conservative Party.

She told a ConservativeHome event: "We are a broad church. I think we are strongest when we are focused on a common enemy, and that is the Labour Party.

"I actually think we have a moderate conservative agenda and a moderate conservative leader in Liz Truss.

"I think she's been able to pull together various strands of our party in our government."

She's mad as a box of badgers.

I often have a wee chortle to myself when people who purport to be patriots think the "Great" means glorious, or splendid. I often just wish they really did know more about the history of these islands...

Great Britain was originally called 'great' in the sense of 'greater' to distinguish it from 'lesser' (ie 'smaller'), or Little Britain' – Brittany in what is now France – not because its people are in any way superior, or the place much, much nicer than anywhere else.

Better than perfidious Albion, I suppose...

The Tories just love an immigration speech, especially from someone of an immigrant background.

Extra loud applause for Rwanda.

As with all the speeches you'd never guess which party has been in power these past 12 years.

Awful, wasn't it. The faithful seemed to lap it up though.
