Suella Braverman resigns as home secretary in a face-to-face meeting with the prime minister – she will be replaced by Grant Shapps

Braverman says she quit after sending an official document from her personal email, a breach of ministerial rules

But in a blistering resignation letter, she says the government needs to rely on people “accepting responsibility for their mistakes”

Pretending we haven’t made mistakes “and hoping that things will magically come right is not serious politics”, she adds

Shapps served as transport secretary under Boris Johnson
Truss faces significant discontent among Tory MPs and losing one of her key ministers will add to turmoil at the top of government.
