MONDAY
Everyone trying their best to look ‘socio-centric’ (Mr Letwin’s orders), but we are all secretly dreading this week. Most of us have never known any other Leader. I will be glad when it’s over. Feels a bit like the time we all went down to Westminster Bridge to watch the great lost whale being towed down the Thames. We laughed and pointed, but inside you felt it was desperately sad and unfair.
These reshuffle stories not helpful either. It is simply not true that Dave is going to demote Hague and Foxy. Last I heard Jed on the subject he said he was planning to move them sideways into key roles which would allow them to devote more time to their outside interests of judo, neocon internet chatrooms and plotting leadership challenges.
