The ex-Interior Minister of the UK, Suella Braverman, was fired on Monday in a cabinet shake-up led by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. This happened because of her controversial comments about protests supporting Palestine.
Rishi Sunak picked James Cleverly to take over as the new Home Secretary after Suella Braverman.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak brought back former leader David Cameron as foreign minister on Monday in a reshuffle triggered by his firing of interior minister Suella Braverman after her criticism of police threatened his authority.
The ministerial reshuffle followed growing criticism of Braverman from opposition lawmakers and members of the governing Conservative Party, enabling Sunak to bring in allies and remove ministers he felt were not performing.
His hand was forced when the ever-controversial Braverman defied him last week in an unauthorised article accusing police of “double standards” at protests, suggesting they were tough on right-wing demonstrators, but easy on pro-Palestinian marchers.
