Well, what a week that was! In my 25 years as an MP, I don’t think I have seen so much politics crammed into the space of 48 hours or so. Last week was a real roller coaster.
Politicians are used to being made to feel the heat under scrutiny by tenacious interviewers but not usually literally and when it is electrically induced by a Labour MP. Let me explain.
Just Wow! What a spectacular weekend and even the most hardened republican must have been impressed by the huge outpouring of affection and respect for the Queen from every corner of the UK and beyond.
