In a major cabinet reshuffle, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has dismissed the controversial interior minister, Suella Braverman. Braverman, known for her outspoken right-wing stance and hardline positions on immigration, had faced criticism for her handling of pro-Palestinian demonstrations and counter-protests in the UK.
The firing follows Braverman’s recent article, written without Sunak’s approval, accusing the police of bias towards left-wing causes. This move was considered to have heightened tensions ahead of protests related to Israel’s actions in Gaza. Braverman has been a divisive figure, frequently engaging in culture war issues that have polarized public opinion.
Sunak’s cabinet reshuffle is seen as an effort to strengthen his team ahead of the upcoming general election expected next year. The changes are anticipated to reward loyalists and emerging MPs within the Conservative Party. The Tories have faced challenges in maintaining popularity after nearly 14 years in power, trailing the Labour opposition by double-digit margins.
