Suella Braverman: From Brexit Campaigner to Home Secretary to Sacked Minister - The Inside Story of Her Controversial Career and Leadership Ambitions - Paperback

by Academic Press (Author)

Suella Braverman is one of the most divisive and ambitious figures in British politics. A staunch Brexiteer, a loyal ally of Boris Johnson, and a Buddhist convert, she rose from obscurity to become the first female Home Secretary and the second female Attorney General in the UK. But her controversial policies, her clashes with the judiciary, and her leadership aspirations also made her many enemies, both within and outside her party. In this explosive and revealing book, you will discover:

• How Braverman became a key player in the campaign to leave the European Union, and why she resigned from Theresa May's government over the Brexit deal.
• What motivated her to challenge Boris Johnson for the Conservative Party leadership in 2022, and how she performed in the race.
• What were the main achievements and failures of her two brief stints as Home Secretary, and why she was sacked by Rishi Sunak in 2023.
• How Braverman's personal life, including her marriage to a Jewish lawyer and her conversion to Buddhism, influenced her political views and actions.
• What are Braverman's plans for the future, and whether she still harbours any hopes of becoming Prime Minister.
