“Being underestimated is the story of my life. It works to my advantage every time. Who’s the winner now [after the peerage row]? Because it’s not Rishi Sunak or [his political adviser] James Forsyth. Whose reputation is damaged? It’s not mine. Who looks the loser? It’s not me. OK, so I’m not going into the Lords, but I’ve got a lot of things happening in my life that are very productive. Has my reputation been tarnished? Am I seen as the lesser person?
Errr… Is this satire?
Am I seen as a lesser person? Yes. But has my reputation been tarnished? Also yes.
As Burns put it ‘O wad some Power the giftie gie us To see oursels as ithers see us!’
or better still “there go I, but for the grace of god.”
Jesus christ. If ever there was a contribution to political debate this cultered on reddit it was drowned out I never saw it. Beautifully put
