Terrific to write for @spectator on why celebrities make the best pub landlords.

I worked under Chris Wormald at DHSC. His peerage is a reward for a string of catastrophic failures.

Keir Starmer — ever a man of his word til the end.
In June 2023 he explicitly ruled out ever indulging in a resignation honours list (BBC Radio 4 Today).
Today he’s marked his resignation with 21 peerages, overwhelmingly public-sector/legal jobsworths. Barely a single wealth creator among them.
Classic line up of the New Establishment which has run the country under Labour and Tory governments for the past three decades and is now firmly in control. Largely (if not entirely) with the following characteristics:
*Career almost entirely in public sector, often taking salaries from several sinecures at once as they work up the greasy taxpayer-funded pole.
*Associated with various ‘right-on’ causes.
*Largely middle class, London chattering class, Oxbridge well represented (of course).
*Fashionable left but not too left. Good mainstream Labour links.
Thus is the antediluvian House of Lords perpetuated by the Left as well as the Right as a comfortable state-funded retirement home for the well-connected ‘good and great’ past their sell-by date — when it should simply be abolished.

Wes Streeting is a “Left-winger presenting as a centrist”, his former speechwriter has warned, amid speculation that he could become the next chancellor.

In a matter of weeks, Wes Streeting could be walking up Downing Street as Andy Burnham’s Chancellor

I worked with him at DHSC. This is what he was really like behind the scenes

The Greens are now the largest party in my council - and their manifesto is terrifying - Arthur Reynolds https://t.co/lhZz1UTEC2

[Arthur Reynolds @ReynoldsArthur]

During the GE @ChefTomKerridge signed a letter endorsing Labour’s economic policies

This week he told @AndrewMarr9 he still believes in their values

But anyone with any sense could see putting Labour’s values in charge would spell the end of our pubs

Rupert Lowes rape gang enquiry this week heard from one victim where she was raped by 600 - 700 men.

Keir Starmer: anyone who wants an inquiry into Pakistani rape gangs "because they want to jump on a bandwagon of the far-right." Never forget what the British PM said
