With the PM caving in on new homes, and Suella Braverman bunking off again, ministers showing leadership are hard to find
Just who is running the country? Your guess is as good as any. In theory, it’s meant to be Rishi Sunak. Only he has taken the homeopathic approach to being prime minister. Less is more. He talks a good game about the UK being a global power. How China should go away and shut up. How the good times are just round the corner.
Except it’s been a never-ending curve for the past 12 years. No one in their right mind thinks anything is going to improve any time soon. Most of us are hunkering down, expecting the worst. Rish! is the incredible shrinking leader. Only effective when he is doing nothing. Little more than the memory of a prime minister.
