Rishi Sunak latest news: Minister defends Suella Braverman as leak details emerge

Therese Coffey has defended Suella Braverman after fresh reports emerged late last night around the leak which initially forced her out of the Home Office.

Ms Braverman was reappointed as Home Secretary by Rishi Sunak on Tuesday having resigned the previous week for using a personal email address to send an official document.

The Sun reported claims overnight Ms Braverman leaked Liz Truss’s plans to cut Britain’s deficit by £14billion with a new ‘Growth Visa’ amid clashes with Ms Truss over migration policy, the Sun reported overnight.

Speaking to Sky News, Ms Coffey said: “The Home Secretary recognised that she had breached the ministerial code last week and clearly the Prime Minister has had a chance to go through this and satisfied himself such that he reappointed Suella to be the Home Secretary.

“There are very serious matters happening in our country. Of course our intelligence services and our police will continue to work with the Home Secretary, giving her the full information that she needs to be able to make her decisions protecting safety, but obviously her main priorities right now is about the illegal migrations that are happening right now, the small boats crossing, and I know she’ll put her full efforts into that.”
