Campaign response - The former Home Secretary

I would like to start by saying that Suella Braverman is no longer the Home Secretary or a Minister in Government. The Prime Minister is clear that the Government must speak with one voice and that all departments and teams should work as one Government. Further, the Prime Minister has also said that all Ministers have a responsibility to be careful with their language.

I understand that the Prime Minister has said that he condemns the violent and wholly unacceptable scenes that took place over Remembrance weekend from the EDL and associated groups and Hamas sympathisers attending the National March for Palestine. The despicable actions of a minority of people undermine those who have chosen to express their views peacefully.

I welcome that the Government is also clear that everyone should be treated fairly by the police and the Prime Minister firmly believes that they continue to do this. 

I can also assure you that there are no plans to introduce a ban on charities handing out tents to rough sleepers.
