Was that really it? Another hastily called press conference on government premises that was really just a third-rate party political broadcast. There used to be rules about that sort of thing. Not that it did Rishi Sunak much good. Many more of these tetchy, moany outings and the Tories’ ratings will be even lower.

On the plus side, it was short and sweet. Blink and you’d have missed the opening whinge. All done and dusted in well under three minutes. Though that’s still three minutes of our lives we will never get back.
