The former home secretary shares her concerns about radicalisation in our schools and the normalisation of anti-Semitism
An end to round-the-clock telephone calls requesting approval for intelligence-service operations might seem a happy by-product of being suddenly ousted as home secretary. But, says Suella Braverman, as a parent of a two-year-old, that has not necessarily meant more sleep. “My daughter still wakes up at 3am,” she sighs. “But, yes, I don’t need to worry about the national-security issues.”
Braverman, 43, describes the responsibilities of home secretary – which include signing off on MI5 surveillance warrants – as a “heavy burden”. “[Officials] do call at any time and you’ve got to be able to respond immediately,” she says. However, it isn’t just the national-security element of the role that the former attorney general has found to weigh heavily.
Canada’s media would never do this story with one reason being that no politician other than Bernier would dare broach the topic.
Yet Canada’s experience with wreckless mass immigration from incompatible cultures and the burgeoning anti-semitism on display in our streets is largely identical to Great Britain’s.
So where will you find such discussions in Canada? Small little blogs like this one. That’s pathetic.
