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. The home secretary avoided the question and repeated an answer she had given to earlier questions. In response, Yvetter Cooper said it is the home secretary's job to follow the ministerial code; 'time and time again, she tries to think that she's above the normal rules' after pointing out that Braverman had broken the code before.
