The day after a fire-bomb attack on a migrant centre and instead of pledging solidarity for the victims the Home Secretary brands them part of an invasion. She brings disgrace to her office and country.

NEW: Sources close to Privileges Committee say evidence is so damning that Boris Johnson could be 'gone by Christmas' if he returns.
One Tory MP tells me any attempt to kill the inquiry could 'bring down the govt'.

The difference between Scotlands First Minister being interviewed and that of PM Liz Truss is night and day! She is eloquent, credible, articulate, honest and answers the questions put to her! Traits which Liz Truss can only aspire to but will never achieve! #bbclaurak

Suella Braverman is now perilously close to making Priti Patel look like the second most callous & ignorant Home Secretary in living memory.
