David Cameron

Cameron back

The surprising appointment of former Prime Minister David Cameron as foreign minister marks a strategic move by Mr Sunak.

The Queen Speaks

It is a measure of that frustration that the monarch ~ in a rare conversation on politics ~ has articulated her exasperation and frustration about the quality of the political leadership.

Nightmare that is Brexit

Brexit is turning to a nightmare, now threatening to bring down yet another British Prime Minister. There is no sign of light yet in the dark tunnel. The British have made a mess of the issue, the House of Commons once a dazzling, sparkling ground of the greats of the empire, is now like a school with quarrelling kids. The lingering desire of hanging on to memory and nothing much else, the parliamentarians, now referred to as lawmakers, can’t even produce a sensible law. To me, like many others of my generation, the spectacle is terribly sad, the worst thing that can happen to any nation is not to be able to take any positive decision.
