Wasn't it because Sunak needed the backing of her camp of MP's to get enough votes to lead the party?Which begs the question 'why did he bring her back in the first place?'

Once again, we return to the original subject of the thread…
I think he will this time.I don’t know why they bother. He’ll not be punished.
It's not the blacking up of Reece-Mogg I'm looking forward toThe Nat C’s speech was the straw that broke the camel’s back for Rishi. He wants her out. It’s time to clean out her cupboards of all the skeletons.
The fact that she has made so many enemies is going to help the PM’s cause immensely but as other have stated, he still needs to find an ethnic minority (preferably female) replacement to make his gammon-baiting immigration policies sound moderately acceptable.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they blacked up Reece-Mogg.
I’m not convinced but I’d like to see Boris Johnson ordered to pay back his defence costs, somewhere in the region so far of £300,000 all out of the taxpayers money.I think he will this time.
This has the hallmarks of Rishi behind this too. He wants Mr Johnson out of Parliament and out of the Conservative Party, beans are being spilt everywhere now.
And I do believe that Rishi will succeed in decapitating the pigman’s political career. Daft really because he could appeal to a certain type of voter in a way Rishi never will. The Tories will get absolutely trounced in the next election as those who still love Boris will punish them. The red wall will be rebuilt higher and stronger than it has been in decades and decades, never it return blue in our lifetimes.

Civil servants ‘have to fact-check’ Suella Braverman’s claims to cabinet
Exclusive: Home secretary under further scrutiny as sources say she has repeatedly made ‘basic errors’ in No 10 meetingswww.theguardian.com
I see the government has folded again under questioning by the Brexit Committee and finalised something which a lot of Brexiteers on here insisted wouldn't happen.

So that's the divorce bill finalised and committed to, with no promise of even a trade agreement in return. Still nothing is agreed until everything is agreed though, isn't it.
The problem is that without any sort of plan, these decisions will be made on the fly, by Ministers when cornered and under pressure in Committees. I know the Government have very little option, given the situation they are in, but it really is no way to run a f***ing country.
Kwasi Kwarteng was, this morning, appointed Minister of State at the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. He will also attend Cabinet.
He would have been appointed yesterday, but didn't realise that amongst his responsibilities as a minister in DExEU was keeping his phone turned on so that people could contact him when needed.
Just about sums up the level of Brexiteer that Johnson is now having to appoint to make up the numbers for his Cabinet

Really sad to see that Dim Dom Raab will not be standing at the next election. I would loved to have seen him suffer the fate of Portillo, humiliated on stage to the cheers of the audience.
A handy sacrificial chuck under the bus.Which begs the question 'why did he bring her back in the first place?'
No room for Fabrikunnt?Who would your top 5 Tories be for a Portillo style humiliation at the next election? I’d go:
1. The Liar
2. The Lettuce
3. The Haunted Pencil
4. Braverman
5. Patel

Can you imagine being stood in a polling station, looking at a list of candidates and thinking "yes, Suella Braverman. She's the candidate I want to represent me and my constituency at Westminster"?Only 5?
Okay, I'll go Johnson, Rees-Mogg, Gullis, Anderson, Braverman (not that she will lose, sadly).
Raabs leaving a sinking ship?Really sad to see that Dim Dom Raab will not be standing at the next election.
