GMB's Susanna Reid (susannareid100) has been praised for not holding back in her questioning of Home Secretary Suella Braverman regarding Tory cuts to the police.
a similar number has reportedly been cut
As Braverman declared that the government ‘will have surpassed’ the highest number of police officers ever ‘if we reach our target,’ Reid repeatedly asked if she would ‘acknowledge’ that around 20,000 police were cut by Tory-led administrations over the last decade. It was a complete stalemate, with Reid continuously pushing for Braverman to acknowledge the police cuts, and Braverman responding simply by saying she wanted to acknowledge they would have a record number if they reached their targets.
Braverman dodged questions on whether she would acknowledge Tory-led administrations cutting police figures since 2010 After being asked multiple times if she would acknowledge the cuts before celebrating the new numbers, Braverman quipped: ‘I think that’s the fourth time you’ve asked the question, Susanna.’
