We are now so far through the looking-glass, most of us have forgotten what reality was meant to look like. A parallel universe is the new normal. Take Rishi Sunak. A prime minister so insecure that he no longer invites lobby journalists to all his events. Just in case anyone asks him any difficult questions.
On Monday morning, the prime minister was at Business Connect, a fantasy organisation the government has invented this week to try to show it has moved on from the “fuck business” mindset of Boris Johnson, to peddle his own confusion in front of a bewildered group of business leaders and journalists. All of whom had no idea why they were there or what Rish! was hoping to achieve. Apart from putting the looking busy into business.
