Yup, one again the British PM is seen to have more power in this country than the President of the USA in his.
We shake his tree, he appoints an enquiry lead by a bastion of the establishment, and what does his report say?
Hrrph -All's well with the establishment that appointed me, but those nasty non-lawyers in the BBC who keep asking awkward questions and pressing our ministers to account for themselves, they have to be cut down a peg or two. They're irresponsible, you know - they threaten democracy and our institutions.
And we laughed at Sir Humphrey - but the laughs on us!
If the media don't question the grandees what will be our fate?
