Braverman is being criticised from senior tories forracist comments. About time, but the Conservative and Nationalist Party is, and always has been, the home for those with racist and nationalistic tendencies (and misogeny). In the past Enoch Powell thought he had the support of the nation, or at least the party, to make his “Rivers of blood speech” – fortunately he was dismissed from the Cabinet double sharp. Todays tories have to counter the attractions of Farage, Brirain First, UKIP and others. So Sunak is not brave enough to call out the inherent racism of traditional tories but panders to the diatribes of Braverman and others.
