I've been out all day so I've only just read Suella Braverman's letter to Rishi Sunak.
By gum, even allowing for political peeve, Sunak comes across as a dishonest creep with the backbone of a small, non-stinging jellyfish.
Or possibly not. Maybe he's there to sink the only mainstream political party with a faint, a very faint prospect of resisting globalism.
No, it's a fairly obvious possibility but I'll stay with creep for now.

It was utterly superb, wasn't it! Like all really great invective, it simultaneously panders to our prejudices, and reveals more objectionable traits. It brought his utter hopelessness into sharper focus.
The Powers That Be want a minion. Theresa May started well (Lancaster House speech) but became too weak to deliver BRINO. Boris Johnson and Liz Truss were wild cards and had to go.
Step forward Rishi Sunak. As far as TPTB are concerned he is the Goldilocks Minion. Not too weak and not too radical. But events are getting away from from TPTB.
I suspect Suella Braverman was choosing her words with great accuracy when she argues that it is time to take back control.
If GB News says that the Tories are on 19%, it's probably much less than that!
I wonder what the fence between No 10 and No 11 Downing Street is like, as for the next fifteen years, Starmer will be sitting on it...
Sam - his elevation to PM seems like a mistake by his supporters. They clearly couldn't have realised how poor he was going to be and how he would make their chances of re-election even worse.
DJ - I think you are right, events are getting away from from TPTB. What they want isn't popular and a blatant stooge makes their games too obvious. Not that it matters much if Starmer is there as a superficially different spare.
Scrobs - Starmer has special fence-sitting trousers. He'll be as woke and globalist as he can get away with but his rabble will cause him lots of irrelevant problems.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
You’d be right to.
Peter - especially when she says important promises have been broken.
James - I think so, he's a creep.
