The
Conservative Party must embrace Nigel Farage to “unite the right”, Suella
Braverman has urged, following a disastrous few days for Rishi Sunak.
The former
home secretary told The Times there was “not much difference” between the new
Reform UK leader’s policies and those of the Tories, as senior Conservatives
start debating the future of the party.
It comes as
we enter a key stage of the election campaign trail with parties launching
their manifestos. The Lib Dems are first out of the traps, with the Tories,
Labour and Greens all expected to produce their policy pledges this week.
But Labour
has seen their plan to impose VAT on private school fees descend into chaos as
the shadow education secretary Bridget Phillipson called out Emily Thornberry
for saying the policy risked increasing class sizes in state schools.
Meanwhile,
the prime minister is set return to the campaign trail on Monday after his
decision to skip a D-Day memorial event attended by other world leaders last
week sparked a furious backlash from some Tories and political rivals alike.
