Sue-Ellen Cassiana "Suella" Braverman QC MP (née Fernandes; born 3 April 1980) is a British politician and barrister who has been the Attorney General for England and Wales since 2020. She has been Member of Parliament (MP) for Fareham since 2015.[1] A member of the Conservative Party, she chaired the European Research Group from 19 June 2017 to 9 January 2018.

She was appointed as Queen’s Counsel automatically on appointment as Attorney General for England and Wales and Advocate General for Northern Ireland in February 2020.

She has announced her intention to be a candidate in the 2022 Conservative Party leadership election.[2]

Early and personal life

Braverman was born to Christie and Uma Fernandes, of Indian origin,[3][4] who had emigrated to Britain in the 1960s from Kenya and Rwanda. Her mother was a nurse and a councillor in Brent[4] and her father, of Goan ancestry,[5] worked for a housing association. She was born in Harrow, Greater London, and grew up in Wembley.[6]

Braverman attended the Uxendon Manor Primary School in Brent and the fee-paying Heathfield School, Pinner, on a partial scholarship,[6][7] after which she read law at Queens' College, Cambridge. During her undergraduate studies, she was chair of the Cambridge University Conservative Association.[8] Braverman lived in France for two years, as an Erasmus Programme student and then as an Entente Cordiale Scholar, where she completed a master's degree in European and French law at Panthéon-Sorbonne University.[9]

She married Rael Braverman in February 2018 at the House of Commons.[10] Their first child was born in 2019 and their second in 2021.[11]

Braverman is a member of the Triratna Buddhist Community (formerly the Friends of the Western Buddhist Order) and attends the London Buddhist Centre monthly.[12] She took her oath of office on the Dhammapada.[13]

Her mother, Uma Fernandes, was the Conservative candidate in Tottenham in the 2001 general election and in the 2003 Brent East by-election.

Braverman was called to the bar at Middle Temple in 2005.[14][15] She completed her pupillage at 2–3 Gray's Inn Square (now Cornerstone Barristers)[16] and then was based at No5 Chambers in London specialising in commercial litigation, judicial review, immigration and planning law.[14][17] She was appointed to the Attorney General's C Panel of Counsel in 2010.[18]

Political career

Conservative candidate

At the 2005 general election, Braverman contested Leicester East, finishing in second place behind Labour's Keith Vaz.[19] She sought selection as the Conservative candidate in Bexhill and Battle, but was unsuccessful,[citation needed] and was eventually selected to be the Conservative candidate in Fareham.[20] Braverman also sought election to the London Assembly at the 2012 Assembly elections and was placed fourth on the Conservative London-wide list,[21] although only the first three Conservative candidates were elected.[22]

Parliamentary activity

Braverman was elected to the House of Commons as the MP for Fareham in 2015 with 56.1% of the vote and a majority of 22,262.[23] She gave her maiden speech on 1 June 2015.[24] She has taken a particular interest in education, home affairs and justice and has written for The Daily Telegraph, Bright Blue, i News, HuffPost, Brexit Central and ConservativeHome.[25]

From 2015 to 2017, Braverman was a member of the Education Select Committee and the Education, Skills and the Economy Sub-Committee.[26] Between November 2015 and February 2016, she was a member of the Joint Committee on the Draft Investigatory Powers Bill.[27] Braverman chaired the all-party parliamentary group (APPG) on Financial Education for Young People from September 2016 to May 2017. Working with the charity Young Enterprise and the "money-saving expert" journalist Martin Lewis, she led the APPG's inquiry into the provision of financial education in schools and launched its report, Financial Education in Schools: Two Years On – Job Done?,[28] which called for better financial education in schools. Braverman was also a commissioner on the Social Market Foundation Commission on Inequality in Education, a cross-party initiative examining the causes and effects of inequality in education at primary and secondary levels in England and Wales.[29]

Braverman joined the Armed Forces Parliamentary Scheme in 2016, graduating from the scheme in 2017.[30] Braverman opened a Westminster Hall debate[31] in the House of Commons[32] on the failings of Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust and has chaired meetings with the Trust's executives along with other MPs on the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Hampshire in which instances of poor care quality and the deaths of patients were investigated.[33]

Braverman was a member of the panel of an inquiry, led by the think-tank British Future, to examine how the government can protect the rights of EU citizens in the UK.[34] Braverman campaigned to leave the European Union in the 2016 EU membership referendum;[35] a majority (55%) of votes in her constituency were for leaving.[36] She was chair of the European Research Group, a pro-Leave group of Conservative MPs, until her promotion to ministerial office; she was replaced by Jacob Rees-Mogg.[37] Following the 2017 general election, Braverman was appointed Parliamentary Private Secretary to the ministers of the Treasury.[38]

During the January 2018 reshuffle, Braverman was appointed as Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Department for Exiting the European Union.[39] On 15 November 2018, Braverman resigned on the same day that Davis' successor, Dominic Raab, resigned as Brexit Secretary in protest at Theresa May and Olly Robbins's draft Brexit deal, which was released the day before.[40]

In March 2019, Braverman stated in a speech for the Bruges Group that "[a]s Conservatives, we are engaged in a battle against Cultural Marxism". Journalists present at the event included Dawn Foster, who challenged Braverman's use of the term "cultural Marxism", highlighting its anti-Semitic history and its connection to the manifesto of the mass murderer Anders Breivik. Braverman responded, "Yes, I do believe that we are in a fight against cultural Marxism. We have a culture evolving from the far left which is about snuffing out freedom of speech."[41] Her use of the term was initially condemned as hate speech by other MPs, the Board of Deputies of British Jews and the anti-racist organisation Hope Not Hate, among other anti-racist charities. Braverman denied that the term was an antisemitic trope, saying, "We have culture evolving from the far left which has allowed the snuffing out of freedom of speech, freedom of thought. [...] I'm very aware of that ongoing creep of cultural Marxism, which has come from Jeremy Corbyn."[42] After meeting with her later, the Board of Deputies of British Jews said in a subsequent statement that she is "not in any way antisemitic", saying it believed that she did not "intentionally use antisemitic language", while finding that she "is clearly a good friend of the Jewish community" and that they were "sorry to see that the whole matter has caused distress".[43]

Attorney General

In the 13 February 2020 reshuffle, Braverman was appointed as Attorney General for England and Wales and Advocate General for Northern Ireland, succeeding Geoffrey Cox who had been dismissed from government. She is the second female Attorney General and the first Conservative female Attorney General.[44] She was criticised at the time for her lack of experience[45] and later, by members of the Bar Council, for her poor choices in the role.[46]

Braverman was designated as a Minister on Leave while pregnant on 2 March 2021,[47] shortly after the Ministerial and other Maternity Allowances Act 2021 was enacted to allow this arrangement. Michael Ellis became acting Attorney General until Braverman resumed office on 11 September 2021.[48]

Leadership candidate

During the 2022 United Kingdom government crisis, Braverman remained a minister, though on 6 July 2022, she called for Boris Johnson to resign and said that she would stand in the 2022 Conservative Party leadership election.[49]

If appointed prime minister, Braverman says her priorities will be to deliver tax cuts, cut government spending, tackle the cost of living challenges, "solve the problem of boats crossing the Channel", deliver "Brexit opportunities" and to "get rid of all of this woke rubbish".[50]

Political right

Braverman stands on the right wing of the Conservative Party, is a hardline Brexiteer, and supports sending cross-Channel migrants to Rwanda. She has said, "If I get trolled and I provoke a bad response on Twitter I know I'm doing the right thing. Twitter is a sewer of left-wing bile. The extreme left pile on is often a consequence of sound conservative values."[51]

British Empire

Braverman has described herself as a "child of the British Empire". Her parents, who were from Mauritius and Kenya, came to the UK "with an admiration and gratitude for what Britain did for Mauritius and Kenya, and India". She believes that on the whole, "the British Empire was a force for good".[51]

Free schools

Braverman was the founding chair of governors at the Michaela Community School,[52] and supports plans to create a free school in Fareham.[53] She sits on the advisory board of the New Schools Network, a charity which aims to support groups setting up free schools within the English state education sector.[54]

Rights versus responsibilities

In a December 2015 op-ed, Braverman wrote, "In essence, rights have come to fill the space once occupied by generosity." She quotes Eric Posner's theories on what the Brazilian state sees as its right to use torture by "the police in the name of crime prevention. They justify this by putting a general right to live free from crime and intimidation above their rights of those who are tortured." She closes,[55]

To correct the imbalance, perhaps we should adopt a Universal Declaration of Responsibilities and Duties, to be read in tandem with that on Human Rights? A fair, decent and reasonable society should question the dilution of our sense of duty, the demotion of our grasp of responsibility and our virtual abandonment of the spirit of civic obligation. What we do for others should matter more than the selfish assertion of personal rights and the lonely individualism to which it gives rise.

Parliamentary sovereignty and international treaties

In 2020, as Attorney General, she stated the UK Government's legal position about the possible impact of the UK Internal Market Bill on the Northern Ireland Protocol:[56]

It is an established principle of international law that a state is obliged to discharge its treaty obligations in good faith. This is, and will remain, the key principle in informing the UK's approach to international relations. However, in the difficult and highly exceptional circumstances in which we find ourselves, it is important to remember the fundamental principle of Parliamentary sovereignty.

Parliament is sovereign as a matter of domestic law and can pass legislation which is in breach of the UK's Treaty obligations. Parliament would not be acting unconstitutionally in enacting such legislation. This 'dualist' approach is shared by other, similar legal systems […].

Transgender matters

In an interview with The Times, Braverman said that schools do not have to accommodate requests from students who wish to change how others recognise their gender, including the use of the pronouns, uniforms, lavatories and changing facilities of their identified gender if it differs from their sex assigned at birth. She argues that, legally, under-18s are entitled to be treated only by the gender corresponding to their sex assigned at birth and that the "unquestioning approach" adopted by some teachers and schools is the reason different parts of the country have very different rates of children presenting as transgender. Braverman also expressed admiration for J. K. Rowling, referring to her as "a heroine" of hers.[51]
