UK Conservative Party Faces Internal Strife Over Home Secretary’s Comments
A civil war is brewing within the UK Conservative Party over the fate of Home Secretary Suella Braverman. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has delayed the decision to dismiss her after she claimed that the police were biased for allowing a pro-Palestinian march on Armistice Day.
Braverman’s allies assert that over 50 Tory MPs are supporting her, particularly from hard-right Conservative groups. Meanwhile, moderate MPs are urging No. 10 and the chief whip to dismiss her for stoking tensions before the pro-Palestinian protest. The internal strife highlights divisions within the party on the handling of Braverman’s controversial remarks.
