What a thrill it’s been watching you tearing strips off everyone from Nadhim Zahawi to Michelle Mone. Your tweets about corruption and the chancers, embezzlers, spivs and hustlers who’ve been accused of making millions out of government contracts – and the ministers who’ve enabled them – have been rare sources of joy in these dark winter days.
It’s been your appearances on morning TV, though, that have had me cheering. Twitter is one thing, but rarely has the sofa on This Morning been put to such good use. Speaking truth to power from ITV’s soft furnishings, with Holly Willoughby looking on, qualifies as an almost revolutionary act in Britain in 2023.
