So Rishi Sunak has decided that Suella Braverman hasn't broken the Ministerial Code (again) so there's no need for an investigation!
Are some MPs more equal than others?

This seems to have been a breach of the code of conduct for special advisers, which says they must not “deceive or knowingly mislead ministers, parliament or others”.
Maybe Sunak will take it upon himself to decide there's no need for an instigation.

In the Commons on Monday, Suella Braverman was asked if she authorised her adviser to respond as he did to the question from the Daily Mirror.
Entirely predictably, Braverman failed to answer the question.
This issue is likely to come up again at today's #PMQs.

In his letter to Braverman, Sunak claims "Integrity, professionalism & accountability are core values of this government & it is right & proper that where issues are raised these are looked at professionally... I know you share this view."
Eh? They treat us with utter contempt!
