We need to talk about Suella Braverman
14 months ago Suella Braverman was Home Secretary. Now, she's positing the idea that Britain could fall into the hands of "Muslim fundamentalism" and warning that the UK could become a theocratic state akin to Iran. What has caused such a shift to the right? And how comfortable are the Tory party with that kind of rhetoric?
