    While I hold Marr and Neil in some regard, I balk at the suggestion that they or the media would have ‘uncovered’ the flaws in Trussonomics if only they had been allowed to interview her. The issues were there to see. Indeed, Sunak (of whom I am no supporter) laid them bare. Marr, Neil and the media failed to report them. They should show greater humility for their failings, not attribute blame to others.

      Having the monarch step in does set a very dangerous precedent (especially when everyone's always been worried about Charles doing that). I think the best way to get a GE would be for the public to protest, and for the strikes to step up a notch to force the Tory MPs to call for one. Maybe the King could give a televised address where he hinted that an election was needed, that might be enough to sway some of the more stubborn traditionalists in the conservatives.

    I wish commentators would stop saying 'we' did this or that when it is 'them', in this case a minority of Tory Party members and MPs, who 'did' it. My vote has only counted in one election nationally or locally since I started voting after 1974. So a lot of us feel totally excluded from politics; but not its effects, unfortunately. we cannot evade what 'they' keep on doing to us. If I had had my way, North Sea Oil revenues would have been reinvested in the country, not frittered away in tax handouts and the like. A lot of property-price inflation must be a consequence of this, for instance. And I would have made sure that house prices stayed at an affordable level by replacing sold-off social housing with new build social housing. Rent rises should have been linked to CPI or RPI ages ago, and there should never have been mortgage relief for private renters. There is very little in the way of Tory or Labour policy that I have agreed with and I have had no way of punishing either party for its myopia and general short-sightedness or help put things on the right lines. Joining a party would just mean conforming or being side-lined.
