This. I assume the Labour calculation is that we can put up with her for a few months given the damage she can do to Sunak. From her perspective, she's out of a job so will get some Advisory/Quango housing role in a Labour administration.
Personally, I'm appalled. She's from the bonkers wing of the ERG and would have hoped we'd have been above this. Alas.
