Before we begin, a brief message from me. After exactly three years and just shy of 700 editions, I'm so pleased to announce that the West End Final newsletter has passed 100,000 subscribers. You couldn't even fit that inside the Emirates Stadium and Stamford Bridge combined. Thanks for making it happen.
Conventional wisdom (as well as Napoleon Bonaparte, I guess) dictates that you should "never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake". Win, lose or draw, today is set to be a difficult day for the prime minister, as he seeks to unite a fractious party around his 'emergency' Rwanda legislation. Given that, why did the leader of the opposition choose it to deliver a major address?
