Come on, she’s dumb and evil but she’s not completely stupid. She already broadcast yesterday that she was going to be writing a more thorough resignation letter today. I doubt she gave a single fuck about the Cameron headlines. She kept her powder dry and now she’s going to dictate the front pages tomorrow. It’s hugely unlikely that the news cycle is going to swing back to Cameron (no one really cares anyway), especially if a significant section of the Tory right rally around her (likely) and then strive to make shit awkward for Sunak (likely).
Eejit-
Ok, so I probably overstated it. But she was pissed off about not making a single front page. And, in my opinion, it has made her (and the others who wrote it) go OTT with the letter. She could well have overplayed it, as HousecatHST has said, and I reckon she will be tainted by being at the heart of the rift in the party - edit: and now she will be tainted by the Rwanda judgement, as it specifically cites that her proposed solution was a load of crap.

It’s a desperate attempt to wrestle the headlines back from the Cameron thing. And it comes across as properly desperate too. Her ego has taken a serious dent from not being on any front page today.
