Bang on, Catherine.
All of it seems inevitable, doesn't it? COVID, separatism etc. They're so predictable yet millions can't see through them.
Btw (and this is related to my article) earlier today I came across something Truss said a few days ago:
"As Conservatives sometimes we've been afraid of making Conservative arguments and allowed the Left to dominate the social space.
I won't allow that to happen."
There is so much to unpack there and all of it is quite disturbing.
Best.
