New Conservatives group is ‘meeting later today’ to discuss Suella Braverman as Tory leader
Braverman was sacked after a number of divisive and inflammatory comments in recent weeks, including the claim that rough sleeping is a ‘lifestyle choice’.
This isn't going anywhere unless they get support form outside of that group. The group has 25 members. Braverman is a member of the ERG with 43 members. One of which (Jonathan Gullis) is a member of both. So that is a potential 77 votes if she garners full support.
There is also the NZSG where I cannot find a list of members. I am not surprised really. Having to explain to constituents that you want to burn the planet doesn't bring the votes these days.
Could be an interesting few days.

Just by considering Suella Braverman in a leading position shows how deranged that "New Conservatives" group must be.
The outcome of the meeting isn't public yet. They have told her to get stuffed. We will have to wait and see.
