It seems like only a week ago that Lee Anderson and Rishi Sunak were all smiles, videoing themselves having a bromantic conversation about the news. “People axing the national anthem from graduation ceremonies,” Sunak exclaimed, in his tiny, indignant voice. “You have got to be kidding me,” Anderson boomed in.
For a real Conservative party broadcast, it looked a lot like a deepfake from the Labour party; but more incredible still is that it was under a week ago, and the two men were in perfect harmony, singing their love of being British with one voice. Now Anderson has resigned, Brendan Clarke-Smith and Jane Stevenson with him, citing irreconcilable differences around immigration and the Rwanda policy.
