Dirty tricks

Is parliamentary democracy really working? Why can Labour led initiatives, which seem to concentrate on Boris Johnson during the Covid area really be of such importance that we need to spend considerable media time, committees assemblies, examinations over party-gate.

Liz Truss has managed to interweave her personal experience with national events, as you do as Prime…
