WE ARE in the middle of a deep political crisis prompted by the “prorogation” of Parliament. But the man who drew up Boris Johnson’s prorogation plan remains in the background.

Which will suit the Tories, because the rogue behind prorogation is actually a Brexit Party supporter. Johnson’s big gamble is based on a scheme from further to the right of the Tory Party.
