"Who is Ben Caldecott? Among other roles, he is a senior fellow at Policy Exchange. Policy Exchange calls itself a thinktank. I see it as a dark money lobby group, and one of the most deadly anti-environmental organisations in the UK." - George Monbiot

"Not only had the opposition asked multiple questions in the past two years but the Labour leader had raised this in a speech over the summer. Oh, whined RishGPT, but you only said the buildings were collapsing. You didn’t say they were collapsing with Raac."

"Sunak’s problem is that almost everyone has long since given up listening to him. There was a brief period after he replaced Liz Truss when a few people kept half an ear open to him but that window has long been closed. Now he’s just an irritant. White noise. A man programmed to be a very basic form of artificial intelligence whose only output is to take the country for mugs." John Crace

"Keegan was completely unrepentant. She didn’t regret anything. No one could possibly have predicted that out-of-date concrete might be out of date. Any responsible politician would have done nothing and hoped for the best. She was the fucking best."

"Gillian Keegan is education secretary – a role that has been held by 10 different people since the Conservatives assumed power in 2010. It’s been held by five different people since July last year alone."

"Each government has its own tone. David Cameron’s had vast carelessness. Theresa May’s had desperation. Boris Johnson’s had chaos and Liz Truss’s was a death cult. Rishi’s Sunak’s, it is becoming clear, is defined by a simmering resentment of the ungrateful bastards who make up the electorate."

"You may recall that in the run-up to the 2010 election that would usher in 13 years of Conservative rule, one of David Cameron’s strongest attack lines against the then Labour prime minister, Gordon Brown, was that he “didn’t fix the roof when the sun was shining”. It now emerges that the Conservatives didn’t fix the roof when they knew it was crumbling." - Marina Hyde

"This is an administration that feels so totally out of ideas that it is hard to remember the last time the government gave the impression of doing anything that a normal person would recognise as governing. "
