Michael Gove says Suella Braverman is ‘first-rate’ politician whom he ‘admires a lot’
Michael Gove has defended Rishi Sunak's controversial re-appointment of “first-rate” politician Suella Braverman.
The levelling-up secretary defended the prime minister’s decision to bring Ms Braverman into cabinet as home secretary only six days after she was sacked for a security breach.

The senior Tory figure added: “She is a valued member of the cabinet, and someone whom I admire a lot."
