Does our Attorney General like Britain? He's going to have to prove that quickly or he might be sacked.
So our Attorney General is a man called Lord Hermer, a man who was today described as an arrogant, progressive fool who has to be sacked, that is, by a Labour peer.
In his legal career, he has argued that Shamima Begum should come back to Britain. He's represented Gerry Adams. He challenged the use of age checks for asylum seekers.
He tried to help Sri Lankans come to Britain as part of the Chagos deal. Look, I could go on, all right.
Patrick asked: "Does our attorney general like Britain?"

He was also a former executive member of the National Union of Students, apparently. So I think we maybe get a flavour for what kind of bloke he is. He's been a long term friend of Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
In fact, Keir reportedly gave the toast at Hermer's silk ceremony when he became a QC back in 2009.
A couple of days ago It was reported that this Labour government is about to enter into a chat about slavery reparations with Caribbean countries, which they have now denied.
After all, the man who is now our Foreign Secretary is on record saying this.

Good stuff. So the Committee for Caribbean Reparations is coming to Britain, apparently to demand our money.
They never even tried it for 14 years under the Tories, because the answer was a hard no. So why are they so confident that they'll get some money now?
Well, knock me down with a feather. It turns out that our attorney general, the Prime Minister's great mate, Lord Hermer, advised human rights lawyers a decade ago to prepare a legal case for slavery reparations that Caribbean nations could bring against the UK.
The plan for a legal battle was partly inspired by a 2013 case in which the British government was successfully sued by Kenyan victims of torture during the 1952 to 1960 uprising. That's according to The Telegraph. Well, can you guess who apparently acted as their legal counsel? Lord Hermer again.
I mean, his name just keeps popping up, doesn't it? Every time there's a case against Great Britain. Bingo, there's Lord Hermer. Here's the issue, though.
When it comes to reparations, a 2023 report co-authored by a United Nations judge says that Britain owes around £18trillion in reparations.
Lord Hermer, who is now our top legal advisor, is described as an expert on international law and in fact even said this about Britain sticking to foreign European court rulings recently.

If ridiculous, bogus international law dictates that Britain has to find £18tn in slavery reparations, what do you think Labour's Lord Homer is going to say we have to do? I'll just reiterate what Labour peer Maurice Glassman said today.
He has got to go. He is the absolute archetype of an arrogant, progressive fool who thinks the law is a replacement for politics.
I mean, there is a cohort of people in British society who think they are more intelligent than the rest of us for supporting things like reparations.
Now, Lord Hermer will say that he was just doing his job, and he was acting in the best interests of his clients.
Fair enough that he was abiding by the corporate rule and he simply took whatever cases came across his desk.
And the government has said that he has declared all previous roles will recuse himself from any cases where he is conflicted and has ceased all private practice work.
Now, I accept that. But there seems to be a pattern in the cases that he once took.
That to me would suggest something about his mindset.
He strikes me as the type of guy that might have a little bit of a chip on his shoulder about, look, I don't know. I don't know, maybe not going to Oxbridge.
