What’s the purpose of Rishi Sunak’s government? It clearly isn’t to govern. The Tories have long since given up on that. Nothing really works any more and Sunak has little to offer but the promise of a few general election giveaways. But his outriders are clearly on a mission to plug the gap with entertainment. Banish those Monday morning January blues with the Conservatives’ comedy hour. The Revenge of the Idiocracy.
Step forward, Lucy Frazer. In a previous life, Frazer was by all accounts a successful barrister. Someone even thought her sharp – or posh – enough to make her a KC. Though what that says about all the other lawyers whom she beat to the promotion doesn’t bear mentioning. There’s no easy way of saying this. But Lucy just isn’t very bright. If the election doesn’t work out so well for her, you can’t see many people hurrying to her chambers asking her to take up their case.
