Ambrose I may have to vote for Rishi after all

A Labour government is a necessary first step in repairing the fractures of the Union. 

At least part of the divorce fever in Scotland and Wales over recent years has been driven by a visceral rejection of the Bullingdon Tories.

However, Labour is going to win whatever happens. 

The question switches to the margin of Tory defeat, and whether it is in the national interest to annihilate the party of Pitt, Wellington, Disraeli, Churchill and Thatcher.

Nigel Farage’s decision to seize the reins of Reform brings the matter into sharp focus.

So yes, I may have to vote for Rishi after all.

Bullingdon 

The Bullingdon Club is a private all-male dining club for Oxford University students. It is known for its wealthy members, grand banquets, and bad behaviour, including vandalism of restaurants and students' rooms. 

Membership is expensive, with tailor-made uniforms, regular gourmet hospitality, and a tradition of on-the-spot payment for damage. 

Some members have gone on to become leading figures within Britain's political establishment. 

These include former Prime Minister David Cameron, former Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne, and former Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

The Bullingdon is often featured in fiction and drama.
