Theresa May has promised that all the people who have been hit by her policies in this scandal will be fully compensated for financial loss and distress.

Of course we should remember the glib promises she made in face of the Grenfell fire, and the revelations of developers being encouraged to reduce standards of cladding etc.

Which of course turned out to be empty promises - but they served their purpose of weathering the media storm.

Once the heat is off, I wonder what will actually happen. I hope people will keep a good eye on the vicar's daughter. Of course I really hope that she'll be out of public life, and someone with a sense of honour might be in her place. But I suppose that requires a general election - none of the papabili among her own party could conceivably meet the fairly low ethical standard.
