Braverman is back as Home Secretary a week after she resigned.

In her resignation letter she wrote, "Pretending we haven’t made mistakes, carrying on as if everyone can’t see that we have made them, and hoping that things will magically come right is not serious politics. I have made a mistake; I accept responsibility; I resign."

Now here she is....carrying on as if everyone can't see that she made a mistake. Things have magically come right for her. This is not taking responsibility. This is not serious politics.

I never thought there could possibly be a worse Home Secretary than Pritti Patel - then along came Suella with her dreams of asylum seekers being flown to Rwanda.

Unbelievable
