The air is thick with talk of Leadership challenges. But 40 or so Labour MPs are not going to nominate any specific alternative Leader. And the Conservatives are ahead in the polls, which is the only thing that bothers them. People who think that ideology or even specific policy ought to come before that are not quite Tories at all.
Right now, the Government is fighting to be free of the EU's State Aid rules, a struggle that makes sense only if Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak intended to use that freedom here along the Red Wall on which they are electorally dependent. It is the Opposition, which is glad to be rid of us, that still wants to be constrained by those rules. Think on.
