Honestly, they'd have been better giving the job to John Major. Someone who has got more pragmatic and less grey in old age. If you're going to pretend the last 10 years didn't happen might as well extend that to 30.
So he's going to remain in the house of lords but be on the frontbench of the house of commons, though presumably not physically. The man who brought us austerity and Brexit and is unelected. They're certainly going out in style.
