Life, they say, can be stranger than fiction, and in the House of Commons, life can be more entertaining than a soap opera – especially when Yvette Cooper takes to her feet.
On Tuesday, Suella ‘I dream of deporting people’ Braverman was the wriggling fish on the barbed hook.
Watch what happened.
Gove is now in charge on antisocial behaviour
Sunak is in charge on small boats
Jenrick is in charge on asylum
Tugendhat on security
She’s not fixing Windrush, or Violence Against Women, and certainly not charging criminals
So what does this Home Secretary actually do? pic.twitter.com/X1AQ4QqpI7

“The Navy’s been in charge of patrolling the Channel. It didn’t work, did it?”
“The Immigration Minister has taken over asylum accommodation because when the Home Secretary was in charge, she broke the law.”
“She’s not doing work on police standards, tackling misogyny or racism or violence against women and girls because she thinks all of that is woke.”
“All of that fuss about the sacking this week of the member for Stratford as the Tory Party Chair and Minister Without Portfolio when the real Minister Without Portfolio is still in office.”
“Why doesn’t she just get out of the way and let somebody else do the job?”
It’s funny because it’s true – which is also why it’s tragic.
Bloody brilliant roast.. and every word true. Why is Leaky Sue still in post? https://t.co/1BuLytx5D7

Outstanding from @YvetteCooperMP I’m surprised there aren’t scorch marks on the floor

No wonder Bravermann frequently goes missing from Parliament https://t.co/tWggsskSw7

Ambulance for the Home Secretary, please, thanks to the sharp tongue of the Shadow Home Secretary. https://t.co/qWDjAnQnwV

This speech sounds like a brilliant piece of screenwriting for a great political drama or satire. Every line brilliant. Thank you.

Simon Dale reminded people that it wasn’t Yvette Cooper’s first rodeo.
@YvetteCooperMP has a history of handing @SuellaBraverman her own ass however this is very personal and absolutely brutal https://t.co/W1IWvcaxkv

For example …
Multiple major disputes between Home Secretary & PM in 5 wks.
Net migration targets, ECHR, re-classifying drugs, small boats, agricultural workers… & torpedoing PM’s India trade deal.
Never seen chaos like it. Wd be front page if Chancellor wasn’t worse.
Commons debate today pic.twitter.com/afpvA3pQz2
