Suella Braverman praises officers who faced 'violence and aggression from protesters and counter protesters' on Armistice Day. The home secretary has faced calls to resign after she was accused of 'sowing the seeds of hatred' for her comments about the police and pro-Palestinian marches.

By Rob Powell, political correspondentIf the Home Office is the graveyard for ministers, has Suella Braverman been digging her own hole?The ugly scenes that played out on the streets of London this weekend certainly haven't made the home secretary any safer in her job.Asked the now fabled question of whether she would still be in post in seven days' time, the best her cabinet colleague the defence secretary could muster was that 'a week is a long time in politics'.

For her political opponents, the violence from far-right groups on Armistice Day can be directly blamed on Ms Braverman's comments.Here, there may be a convenient blending of causation and correlation.Some far-right demonstrators have been present around the Cenotaph during pro-Palestinian marches for the last few weekends.
