Today cabinet minister Michael Gove resisted calls for publish documents relating to the security breach. Ms Braverman had been trying to send the draft written ministerial statement, which contained highly sensitive policy information, to a fellow MP from her Gmail account on October 19. It was sent to the wrong person - a Parliamentary staffer - at 7.52am. The recipient messaged Ms Braverman highlighting it had been wrongly sent to them at around 8.30am, it is reported. This morning the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg revealed Ms Braverman then emailed the recipient at 10.02am saying: "Please can you delete the message and ignore."

Asked if the Home Secretary had reported it straight away, cabinet minister Michael Gove said: "That's my understanding, yes". The BBC reports that chief whip Wendy Morton - who lost her job last week in Rishi Sunak's reshuffle - was contacted by the office of the person who received the wrongly-addressed email.
