NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Suella Braverman has been referred to a financial watchdog over concerns of a potential breach of insider trading laws.
The Home Secretary, reappointed in the role following the appointment of Rishi Sunak as Prime Minister, previously admitted to sending government emails to her personal phone.
Without authorisation, Ms Braverman sent draft immigration policy to Tory backbencher Sir John Hayes from a personal email address, inadvertently also sending it to a staff member of another Conservative MP.
Shadow city minister Tulip Siddiq has now asked the Financial Conduct Authority to investigate the leaking of information that led to Ms Braverman’s resignation.
