The press has dubbed this gaggle of far right MPs "The Five Families" in a nod to the Mafia's running of New York. Ain't that apposite! Back to Star Chamer. The original Court of Star Chamber was set up in the 15th Century - Jacob Rees-Mogg's vision for Britain where he and his pals think they do, or should, reside. Also, the original Court was " used later on in its history as an instrument of oppression rather than for the purpose of justice for which it was intended." Ring any bells? If that ain't the aim and record of the Tory right then I don't know what is. Surprisingly, this grandiose-sounding bag of donkey's doo-dahs has concluded Sunak's Rwanda Bill...
