    She wants to get fired.

    One of the theories going round at the moment is Sunak will jump ship mid next year leaving Braverman to lead the party into the election.

    By getting fired she removes herself from leadership.

        Maybe she can paint herself as a maverick who ‘spoke truth to power’, ‘I’m being silenced’, all that routine?

        Being fired by someone who then loses an election can be spun as “See, if only they had listened to ME!!”

        Quitting then coming back makes you seem indecisive

          She’s already quit over “integrity” because she sent an attachment over her personal gmail account, so I guess she just doesn’t want to be seen as a repeat offender.

          It feels more like she’s thinking she can say it and get away with it to me. If she gets fired, she can always proclaim that the woke left has infiltrated the party and got her fired.
