    [Politics] The Right Honourable Suella Braverman. KC MP **Sacked 13/11**

    That says it all. You're going to visit them on Christmas Day as it is something that has to be done. It's no consolation, but I would suggest that is probably something that applies to many people up and down the country.

    Christ. My only advice would be when it gets too much to bear, close your eyes and think of our best goals. Good luck, and keep your cool. These are simple people. It's not their fault. Perhaps you could become adept at changing the subject: 'Oh look, a squirrel !' 'The turkey/goose/beef was...

    I don't remember reading that in the Buddhist scriptures. I'm beginning to think she may not be a Buddhist after all.

    My concern is that she keeps returning. It seems like we can't ever truly get rid of her, like athlete's foot.

    I would get stuck in, and then fall asleep after an hour or two. My usual trick. But I wonder how our Suella would handle it? Would she become a lovely, soft, gentle woman? Or would she become akin to a brooding volcano? My money's on the latter. I heard on the BBC news that there is going...

    In that case, I will bow to your first hand experience. Some Buddhists drink alcohol !

    That was my point in an earlier post. She claims to be a Buddhist, or at least took her oath as an MP on it. Her actions don't live up to those claims.

    No it doesn't. Specifically, the Buddhism she took her oath as an MP on - the book of Buddhist scripture Dhammapada. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-62807062 What are the 5 precepts in Buddhism? The Five Precepts to abstain from taking life. to abstain from taking what is not given. to abstain...

    Get a stock of knackered old small boats, and dump them, one by one, on her front lawn. Put fairy lights on them for Christmas.

    JR was a pussy cat compared with this specimen. She emits evil from every open orifice.

    One more step on the path to enlightenment. Only a matter of time before she achieves nirvana.

    I'm disappointed that Braverman won't be getting sacked today. Sacking her just once doesn't feel like it's enough. She should be sacked once for being completely incompetent, and then again for being toxic and divisive. Edit: and then quite possibly a third time for still not getting the...

    Floella Benjamin would have done a brilliant job as Home Secretary, a job which needs a light touch. She is a gentlewoman in every sense.

    I've only just glanced at it on ITV news at ten, but it would seem that Suella Braverman is doubling down..... 'Further action is necessary' - Suella Braverman, Home Secretary.

    Your comment reminds me of a news article towards the end of Trump's tenure. The gist of it was that 'the greatest threat to our (the US) national security is now sitting in the White House'. I'm not trying to overstate the danger of Braverman, but I do see a parallel.
