Could anyone make this up? I doubt it but here we are racing towards 2023 and we have to look back at the car crash that the British political class has become. It is very easy to blame it on Boris Johnson because, and let us have a little Christmas compassion, he was crap. Brilliant at getting the job useless when he got the job and I mean USELESS. No I think it is in no small part the fault of the Conservative Party. They claim, with some justification, to be the party of government so if this is the case then that must mean the mess we are in is very much their problem and Johnson very much their creation and creature. It must be remembered that he very nearly became Prime Minister again when ‘I Know‘ Liz Truss’s huge ego smashed into reality demonstrating what an empty vessel she was.

Is there a silver lining? Not at the moment but we can all live in hope for the new year, can’t we???
