I think that in 2016, or thereabouts we slipped into an alternate reality where Benny Hill had supplanted Big Brother in Airstrip One. I mean a deputy chief whip on more testosterone than a Tour de France winner called Pincher, with 'previous'. You have to be joking, what's the chief whip called - Mr Groper?

With Sunak going, is this a case of a sinking ship leaving the rat?
