I know that there were all sorts of DEALS before Noel Edmonds arrived , but they were all done behind closed doors . Now they abound, and are "in our face". The real change happened when Trump, and admittedly the rest of the entertainment industry got hold of them, through Apprentice and the like. It soon became necessary to be publicly annoyed with some one and to build up each sequence with a frisson of tension and foreboding. Politics too used to be done via ' Treaty ' again behind closed doors. Each side would know their own strengths and weaknesses some of them obviously apparent. Although they sometimes dragged on, we did not really get to know much until it was near the end . Now DEALS and variations are the substance of ALL our evening news and politics specials . Will we go back to old fashioned government ? or will it be tension all the way. In this co-vid age do we really need these distraction and cliffhangers on too frequent occasions. Thrill of the chase should be confined to animal films[and I do not mean fox or big game hunting], F1,and Rom-coms.

Posted by MattHardyA Boris promise is just a lie that hasn't happened yet. Whatever Sue Grey says, no way is Boris going to admit he lied and resign.

Posted by webspider555I’m beginning to wonder whether our government is just incompetent or are all these things happening just to get us in a rage arguing amongst ourselves.
