The shadow home secretary, Yvette Cooper, challenged Suella Braverman in the Commons over the home secretary's claim that she did nothing wrong after receiving a speeding ticket in 2022. The Labour MP asked Braverman about the events that followed her receipt of the fine, after it was reported that she had asked her special adviser to tell journalists there was no speeding offence and to see whether civil servants could organise a one-to-one speed awareness course.
