The interests of the country have taken a back seat for a very long time as far as successive Conservative governments are concerned.

This month, after having had rings run round him by Suella Braverman who he had appointed (displaying both lack of judgement and weakness) just six days after she had had to resign for breaching the Ministerial Code, Rishi Sunak finally sacked his Home Secretary.

A culmination of her terrible decisions and her awful remarks meant her sacking was inevitable but, as I have said before, rearranging the deckchairs changes nothing.

The return of one of the architects of austerity and failure, David (now Lord) Cameron shows that the government has run out of ideas and run out of road.

It’s time for a General Election.
