You've been predicting the collapse of the current government ever since the day after they won last year's general election with the date of the said collapse being periodically put back. It's a bit like watching one of those religious cults that predicts the end of the world and then has to have a re-think when it doesn't happen.

I think 2022 remains the best you can hope for and I have doubts about whether Labour will be successful then -The Great Leader will be 73 and the electorate will either be told or will work out that would mean that he would be 78 by the end of a full term unless he stood down, in which case the possibility of Diane Abbott putting her hat in the ring would loom large. In addition, I think Labour are in danger of being rumbled over Europe with their 'working class' support working out that their constant references to remaining in the Single Market meaning that they are flirting with retaining free movement.

And, of course, cults tend to have sell by dates.

Maybe you'll be waiting in vain, like Bob Marley.
