Boris Johnson's Opportunism Is Our Opportunity

Daniel Hannan's peerage will be the consolation prize for the "Singapore of the North Atlantic" brigade. 

Insofar as anyone at all holds such views in the electorate at large, then those were not the votes that swung either the 2016 referendum or the 2019 General Election (or the one in 2017, come to that). 

Boris Johnson is busy renationalising railways. Well, you can do that outside the EU. And this week, listen up for hugely increased spending to stop the Wall from turning Red again. 

The Right has nowhere else to go. Already swatted away like a fly over Huawei, it is not particularly large in this Parliament, anyway. 

The Government's majority is made up of local populists from Wales, the Midlands and the North, whose aim in politics is to get money spent on their respective patches.

And they will. As much as anything else, we who are their constituents must make sure that they do.

Johnson's only political opinion is that he should remain Prime Minister. His opportunism is our opportunity, and we must grab it with both hands.

I will be standing for Parliament again here at North West Durham next time, so please give generously. In any event, please email davidaslindsay@hotmail.com. Very many thanks.
