Braverman really disturbs me and there are three things in particular:
Is she really as stupid as she comes across?
If so, just how easy is it to get the qualifications to become a QC?
Is she really as bigoted as she likes to make out or is she just the mouthpiece for more sinister clandestine groups who can exploit her stupidity?
Nothing of what she says ever makes any sense, when looked at in context of current affairs. I was listening yesterday to someone making the same statement as the OP in that she seemingly is trying to get sacked, as part of a leadership campaign.
Who would vote for her? she alienates anyone with any humanistic sensibility whatsoever, and I would suggest that even right leaning Tories would find her objectionable on numerous levels. Even political players with sociopathic tendencies and a complete lack of empathy usually understand to temper their language in order to court popular votes, but she just seemingly blurts out the first thing that comes into her head, but in saying that it seems very calculated as though she's being fed the lines.
I'm not convinced that Starmer can win a GE, but with Braverman at the head there is no way the Tories could win, whereas Sunak might just pull them over the line for another 5 years of disaster politics, infighting, and leadership contests.
It might even be a bit of reverse psychology. Sunak's team let Braverman spout her nonsense because it makes Sunak look almost reasonable, I'm not even convinced he would bin her if he won a GE, because her rantings garner too much mainstream publicity and he can set about his very elitist agenda, massive tax cuts for the very very wealthy and major corporations, dismantling the NHS, dismantling basic human rights and employment regulations, and dismantling environmental regs, etc, slightly out of mainstream view.
