British Home Secretary Suella Braverman has left the government of Liz Truss, British media reported on Wednesday, amid a crisis of confidence in the new British leader.
The exact reasons and conditions of his departure were not yet known.
The information, first revealed by the left-wing daily
The Guardian
, was not denied by Downing Street and confirmed to the British agency PA and the BBC.
Under heavy attack after having to abandon her economic program, British Prime Minister Liz Truss showed her determination in Parliament on Wednesday, presenting herself as a “
fighter, not someone who gives up
”.
Rejected by public opinion, challenged within her own majority, the conservative leader is already on probation six weeks after entering Downing Street.
Released until then from her silence only to apologize on the BBC after the humiliating renunciation of the promised tax cuts, she faced a major test on Wednesday during the weekly meeting of questions in Parliament.
"
I'm prepared to face it, I'm ready to make the tough decisions
," she said.
