In most normal worlds, if you’ve made an absolute holy show of yourself, you go quietly off and hope no one ever mentions you again. But it seems if you’re an ex Tory PM, you resurface almost immediately and strut about as if people want to hear from you again.
We really don’t.

@13sarahmurphy In most normal worlds, if you've made a criminal disgrace of yourself, you face charges. You certainly don't get to stay on in another office. Parliament sucks.

It’s not easy guessing which Tory you mean …. But I suppose it’s all of them?

@13sarahmurphy Sadly, this is how the US works, too. Pretty much every person from the past decade or three who did hideous things (including war crimes) is now richer and more popular than they were before.

@13sarahmurphy I've been wondering whether my life is long enough to have the time to watch her Spectator interview with Fraser Nelson just for the cringe.

My conclusion? It isn't.
