Kemi Badenoch to oppose smoking ban in blow to Sunak’s authority

Business secretary speaks out as Penny Mordaunt and other ministers waver over support

www.theguardian.com

Kemi Badenoch has announced she is opposing Rishi Sunak’s smoking ban because it will mean “people born a day apart will have permanently different rights”.

Nigel, Liz Truss, creh who left to join that soon-to-be-former party (remember Change UK? ) Lee Anderson. Is Liz Truss even still an MP? Until the election I suppose

The wait has been exhausting.
