The BBC has been accused of breaching impartiality rules after Laura Kuenssberg appeared to call for Suella Braverman to be sacked live on air.

During a BBC1 interview with Grant Shapps in which she directly asked whether Braverman should be sacked, Kuenssberg said: “We will see what the next couple of days bring, because I think words do matter, and it does matter very much who sits around the Cabinet table.”

One interpretation of her words is that Braverman’s Op-Ed in which she laid into the Met Police, was a sackable offence and that her days as Home Secretary are numbered.
