First he tested the water by proroguing Parliament. The cognoscenti protested but most people had other things to worry about. Then he broke the law in a specific and ltd way and got his cronies to back him. Emboldened, he is unlikely to stop there...

First they came for the European Union. Then they came for the European Convention on Human Rights. This was always a question on when, not if. The logical endpoint of this initiative is withdrawal from the ECHR.

This is all taking us to a very dark place. Who in their right minds would trust Johnson with their human rights? He is the little boy throwing a tantrum when told he can’t always have his way

Wonder if Stella Kyriakides would have accepted the 'logic of first come first served' if the EU had managed to get its act together earlier? This really isn't a good look.

Funny how, for many Tory MPs, Sue Gray’s political links make her report and investigation partial and unreliable; while Richard Sharp’s make him a suitable man to uphold the independence of the BBC.

The BBC should not expect to control the views of its non news freelancers on other platforms. It has got itself into a mess. And as before, It will likely do so again while the Govt of the day oversees the licence fee and / or, board appointments. But...
