Suella Braverman has departed role as home secretary

UK

Suella Braverman has departed Liz Truss’s government, the Home Office has confirmed.

She was only appointed as home secretary 43 days ago by Ms Truss.

It follows the sacking of chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng last Friday and the axing of the majority of the government’s mini-budget on Monday by new Chancellor Jeremy Hunt.

Ms Braverman was seen entering Number 10 at around 1pm this afternoon, leaving around half an hour later.
