(Picture: Daniel Hambury)There we all were. Basking in the glow of post Platty Joobs Britain. Chuckling fondly at the memory of the Queen chatting marmalade sandwiches with Paddington bear. Then it hit us like a train on Monday morning. I decided to treat myself to a bit of a lie-in after a busy weekend to be greeted by about 60 messages informing me that the Prime Minister was facing a vote of confidence and would I like to come on the airwaves to discuss it?
I wasn’t the only one caught out. A Tory MP told me they had a rude awakening when they heard the news on the radio, had to leap out of bed, find a suit, race to the station and head to London.
