I speak as someone who voted against the Rwanda plan because I did not believe it would work without tackling the ECHR in parallel. I warned publicly of the resulting electoral iceberg ahead for the Conservatives and walked a lonely path for doing so. It was a horrible time. In a way I could understand if that had been Suellas - or others - moment of breaking. But the Conservative Party did respond in the autumn of [----].

Theres no serious case to be made that she isnt a very robust Conservative with both a big and a small C.

"Im frankly astonished. A Croydon Labour MP has asked me to justify why the Labour Mayor of Londons ULEZ expansion is making life harder for her residents. This is a policy imposed by Labour backed by Croydon Labour councillors and still supported by Labours local mayoral candidate. I warned this would punish elderly residents carers and people on fixed incomes - and now Labour pretend to be surprised. It defies belief.
