Given the understandable frustration Suella had with the system of Westminster and the civil service and how maddening it sounded to actually get anything done. What difference will moving from one party to another make if Reform were to form a government to when Suella was secretary of state before?

If Reform wins Parliament how will they not be prevented from implementing their reforms by an entrenched bureaucracy deeply opposed to the Reform policy? If a Reform government is unable to implement their policies would that mean that democracy actually doesn’t exist in the UK, but that bureaucracy is the ruling regime instead as a kind of new aristocracy?

Hi Suella, you have frequently blamed the civil service, activist lawyers, and the ECHR for the rise in net migration figures. At what point does a cabinet minister cease attributing systemic dysfunction to external institutions and take personal accountability for the administrative failure of the department they led? What specific steps will you and your party undertake (if elected, of course) to avoid Konstantin and Francis having to interview you about why it all went wrong yet again in another 5 years?

What does Suella think she would be able to do differently now, in Reform, as opposed to her old “job”?

I don’t see much changed, even if it is more centralised in power by someone who does damage and good in equal parts…

Teenagers naturally rebel against their parents, are we starting to see more right wing teens rebelling against their leftie parents? Will this contribute to politics in the future?

Will Reform be smart enough, prepared enough and brave enough to overturn the establishment control and corruption of the last 30years ie behave like Sulla , Caesar and Octavian as one force of nature

Matt Goodwin thinks that the fall in Reform's poll ratings from earlier this year started with the acceptance of former Conservatives like yourself and Robert Jenrick. Do you think he has a point, and what is your counter argument to his view?

Without the obstacles of the then PM and the Civil Service what would a Suella Braverman Home Secretary do with the Police? What are your thoughts on the current plans to merge several Forces?

Lets say reform comes into office on an pro-deportatiom platform. Do you believe the British public would support similar types of policies the Trump administration is pursuing in the US, or would their have to be a different process?

It seems that Labour will do anything not to call an early general election. How much of a problem is this for Reform, and can they stay the course if indeed the next election is in 2029? Is there anything to be done, to force Labour into an election before that date?

How do we unite on the right? We are looking down the barrel of a left wing coalition while the right is squabbling about petty shit. The country is sick and tired of arrogant politicians who are only there to serve themselves. Be better. Work better together. And sort this out otherwise we are fucked.

I was going to ask this. I would be more direct though. How are you going to, specifically, before he calls a general election, unite the right? The right of UK politics really needs to sort this out. If you don’t we are, as Georgie says. Fucked.

What is the one thing about Britain that you believe has been lost in your lifetime, and can politics realistically bring it back?
