Labour did its best to adopt a tone of hysterical indignation, and when Yvette Cooper told Braverman to “get a grip on her rule breaking behaviour”, any foreign tourist watching from the gallery might have assumed that our Home Secretary goes joy-riding on cocaine. “Foreign Secretary Forgot My Birthday, Says Senior Civil Servant”? “Chancellor Leaves Dirty Coffee Cups on Desk”? It’s a mark of decline and decadence that Westminster pretends to take such matters seriously, as if we haven’t got bigger fish to tempura. But who on Earth cares? I’d love to meet the sad sack who took it upon themselves to blow the whistle on their minister. The issue that you are evading, said Labour’s Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi, is whether or not you asked a civil servant to help you arrange a private traffic course. Again and again, she said, “I sped, I regret it, I paid the fine”. The preceding home office questions were stupid enough to drive a jaded journalist to fantasies of ritual seppuku.Īgain and again, the opposition asked Suella Braverman about her speeding ticket. And the Japanese want to invest £18 billion here in the UK, providing a much-needed shot in the arm to our sex robot industry.īut though the UK is a major power, it refuses to be a serious one. We’re “de-risking” our relationship with the Chinese. Rishi flew back from Japan and the G7 on Sunday and was up before the Commons on Monday - bright-eyed and bushy-tailed - to tell us that Britain is back! “Domo arigato, Mr Sunak-o!” See, this is why I could never serve as prime minister: the insane travel schedule (that and I’m committed to drive mother to aerobics twice a week).
