The resignation of Davies after his late - night amble around Clapham Common apparently caused
as progressive a
figure as Blair to worry that «we could get away with Ron
as a one - off
aberration, but if the public start to think the whole cabinet is engaging in gay sex we could have a bit of a political problem».
And if this was the world
as it should be, 2017 must have been an
aberration: a freak result that could be put down to the election's unusual circumstances, a terrible Tory campaign, and Jeremy Corbyn's sudden, bizarre and surely unsustainable status
as a cult
figure.
