It’ll all be different when Ruthie becomes Lord Chancellor.

I fear that I am too radical ever to be appointed as Lord Chancellor, especially in the police state in which we now live. (See current erosion of the independence of the judiciary by the Ministry of Justice.) However the Central Committee could do a double bluff by appointing Ruthie: someone who gives every appearance of independence and a desire to make radical change, but then not giving her any real power to change anything.

Still annoyed I couldn’t make friday, but even more annoyed at Margaret ‘Homes for the British’ Hodge.
