ECHO COLUMN

A Tory PM - This is not what integrity, professionalism and accountability look like.

The damage that the Conservative Party has done to our country has been immense.

While the economic shocks from Covid-19 and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine could not be predicted, Britain is lagging in its recovery compared to our G7 counterparts.

My condolences are with the Royal Family tonight upon the news of the death of Her late Majesty The Queen.

A figure we had come to see as timeless, her service was an example to us all.

She leaves the monarchy, the nation and the world a better place through her devotion to duty.
