Re: Owen Paterson: Anger as Tory MP avoids suspension in rule shake-up

I’m loathed to commend Starmer - and I’m inclined to think he is playing a good strategy by accident in that “doing nothing” is an unusual strategy - however in this case letting the Tories cannibalise each other over the right to represent corporate interests over their constituents might actually just work. It avoids the classic trope of being accused of “playing politics”. So long as the “VIP fast lane” is dominating the news and everyone bar the Telegraph is gunning for Johnson sitting back with your feet up might actually achieve more.
