I've been watching and listening with interest about the ongoing trial of our Prime Minister. The Supreme Court is deciding if he mislead (a.k.a. lied to) the Monarch in advising her to prorogue Parliament at the precise time he did and his motivations for doing so. It's all very reassuring (not!) to see men in very expensive suits talking in very plummy accents about interpretations of conventions that should really have been settled in a written constitution hundreds of years ago. I can't help thinking that this is going to end in a very unsatisfactory way, either we're screwed and it's all illegal or we're screwed and it's all perfectly fine, I bet we'll all be glad we were able to sort that one out.
