It could be nothing more than scurrilous yellow journalism, but it seems Rishi Sunak is falling into foul moods because he can see he’s in his final days in charge of the government.

The Guardian is reporting

outbursts of Sunak peevishness and petulance, sometimes reflected in interviews in which he expresses exasperation at the stupidity of his interviewer.

Like John Major, Sunak is said to have become

more and more enraged at the “bastards” in his cabinet that he thought were dragging him down.

It compares him with Gordon Brown, who

visibly struggled with the demands of office… and suffered from congenital disorganisation. Wardrobes in hotels were moved to cover marks on the wall caused by projectiles of office equipment hurled by the frustrated premier.

But even this comparison is unfavourable:

Sunak’s irritation with the world by contrast seems mild; a low, weak whine set against a brooding volcano.

The Graun seems to think there’s nothing Sunak can do to change the relentless march of destiny, in any case, facing

a single defining event [that] transforms and solidifies a public mood, leaving the occupant in No 10 doomed and ever more frustrated as they lurch from one strategy to another to re-engage a public that has seemingly closed its mind to reappraisal.

For Sunak it appears there is that sea change in opinion, and there is nothing he – or any Tory – can do to reverse it.

Any blue Tory, that is.

Fortunately for their brand of government, Keir Starmer’s red Tories are poised to take their place, supported by a right-wing press that wants you to believe a lie that his Labour Party is not a gang of Tories in red ties.

Real change can only be grasped by breaking the Tory-Labour-Tory cycle and choosing somebody different. It means actually looking at the policies on offer, realising that Labour and the Tories are the same now, and choosing someone different. Are you brave enough to do it?
