Well, it’s not been a great week for Rishi Sunak, has it?
There has been a lot said about his wife’s tax affairs, but one thing is for

When I was looking at the opinion polls yesterday, I found
myself wondering how it would be possible for the Labour Party to find a working
majority at the next election. Every time I found a solution, any vote gain I
could envisage, was counteracted by losses. These losses would be caused by any
