Near the end of our latest podcast (now with more-inferior-than-ever video! No worries, the tech people have checked our Skype settings and next week we’ll be much less jerky) (well, the video will be less jerky; we’ll be the same jerks we always were) (but I digress), Andrew Coyne and I make a very rash offer vis-a-vis tis whole prorogation business. I think it’s only fair to point out that I’m the one with the big idea and the big mouth. In this as in most things, Andrew is mostly innocent.

But he did come up with “prorogative.” Now there’s a cringe-worthy pun.
