Answer: Home Secretary

Rishi Sunak has reappointed Suella Braverman to the position of home secretary. All you need to know about her is as follows:

When Liz Truss was elected as the country’s new prime minister in September, she was named home secretary, in charge of managing law enforcement and border controls in the UK. After breaking the rules by sending a formal document from her personal email, she resigned. She criticised the administration for breaking “key pledges that were promised to voters.”

Suella is a shorter version of Sue-Ellen and she married Rael Braverman at the House of Commons in 2018. Their two children George and Gabriella were born in 2019 and 2021.

Her parents, who are from Kenya and Mauritius, raised her in the adjacent Wembley neighbourhood of north-west London where she was born. Her mother ran for office as an MP while working as an NHS nurse and Tory councilwoman.

She referred to the European Court of Human Rights’ decision to cancel the first flight as “unacceptable” when it was made.

She was a junior Brexit minister who left her position in opposition to Theresa May’s EU agreement. She is a licenced barrister and was appointed attorney general by Boris Johnson in 2020, serving as the government’s top legal counsel.

She made promises to decrease taxes and oppose “woke rubbish” during the summer, but she was defeated in the second round of voting.

She took her oath of office on the Buddhist scripture Dhammapada when she was elected to the position of MP.
