Forget all the hype around Game of Thrones, there is a new fantasy drama emerging. Set in an indiscernible point in the distant future, it holds all sorts of promise of high-level political intrigue, warring factions, hopes and betrayals. It is post-Brexit Britain – a mythical land where all policy dwells and all public sector ambitions will be answered.

There is the promise of a Spending Review, a Shared Prosperity Fund and a social care Green Paper. This imaginary world even holds all hopes of an end to austerity. There is a framework, setting out a path towards the blissful utopia of devolution – and there is not a single blade of long grass in sight.
