Looking forward to it! Very interesting, will be curious indeed to see if they can anchor themselves as this new party of Middle England or be cannibalised by Labour (or a revived One Nation rump?).

Very good piece. Where do you think the Lib Dems end up in this scenario?

Top bloke indeed and feel like this could be at least a 3-parter! Love his way of speaking, his politics and his all round great attitude. The title is right, would have made a great leader of the party and the country.

And yet again, real life imitates The Thick Of It (from @thetimes.com review of Seldon’s Truss at 10).

Cross-posting from Sxitter… would love to hear Bono on Leading re. his part in the Jubilee 2000/Drop The Debt campaign. The chapters of his autobiography on that and getting the W administration to move on PEPFAR are fascinating (and of course TB and GB were intimately involved…).

That’s fascinating! Some might say that the game has gone soft these days - not me!
