Suella Braverman rinsed by MPs after speeding fine fiasco

[@TalesOfWar]

The only thing record breaking is the number they/re hiring at once. 20,000 to replace the 21,000 they got rid of. Along with them, decades worth of institutional experience. They did the same with the military when they came to power and cut 60,000 from the Navy and a bunch form the Army, mostly officers who would be coming up for retirement. So they basically shafted them by not letting them get their full pension after a literal lifetime of service to their country.

We've only recently got the carriers to replace them and are still waiting for delivery of the F-35's to replace the Harriers.

We can reasonably interpret this to mean that she did not try to avoid accepting the penalty by accepting a reduced FPN penalty of a course. If she _did_ try get her publicly-funded staff to investigate her accepting the reduced penalty then she has just lied to Parliament. I know, I know, you just cannot imagine a member of the Government lying to parliament, so she must be telling the truth, and it must be logic that is out of kilter.

[@TalesOfWar]

I'm pretty sure she was so keen to avoid the points because she'd done it before. When she became an MP in 2015 they apparently asked the advisors who brief new MP's if she could claim speeding fines on expenses. Being a barrister, she should have known the answer was NO. She then somehow became Attorney General.

I am in the USA, but I also follow British politics closely (as well as USA politics). I guess I should give some credit to the fact that the home secretary at least drives herself around. Here in the USA a cabinet official probably would not be driving themselves around. Having said that, I can’t believe That she is still around as a front bench member of the cabinet. She gets sacked by Liz Truss, get her job back from Rishi Sunak, Has never really been free of being under the microscope. Now, comes the speeding ticket special treatment, revelations. If I had a message for the right honourable Home secretary it would be you are The UK’s top law enforcement officer, or at least you oversee most aspects of law enforcement. Is it too much to ask that you follow the law yourself and do not ask for special treatment? Yes, maybe that is too much to ask of the current Conservative Government.

​@@stormsurge6765 I don't care about Cruella speeding, guaranteed I as a biker have done worse. What I do care about is that those who make the rules, abide by the rules and are subject to the same proceedings as the rest of us. She was guilty of breaking the ministerial code once, and it's apparent that she didn't give a shit by seemingly doing it again. If this was the private sector, she would have lost her job for a serious breach of company rules.

remember many of the present labour front bench actively worked to undermine the then labour leader Corbyn , so it is there fault in some respect that we have had a tory govt for 13 years even though after 4 years they had fucked up the country with austerity
