Are we taking about the same Nick Robinson at the BBC who was privately educated, studied PPE at Oxford, was chair of the Oxford University Conservative Association, founder of the Macclesfield Young Conservatives and national chair of the Young Conservatives?

Not a particularly left wing background to be fair!

Indeed.

Anyone to the left of Nick Candy or Richard Tice seems to tick the "lefty" box for Seph. Unfortunately, that's quite a big field of runners so most media organisations save GB News and the Telegraph become lefty-dominated using this methodology.

This video made me laugh - it's looking at the predictions Lord Hannan made in June 2016 about how life in the sunlit uplands of post Brexit Britain would be in 9 years time - so about now.

Cant say I have heard of Lord Hannan, but the very first prediction told me he was clearly in his own fantasy world.
We were never going to be celebrating our own "Indepenence Day" with fireworks etc.
