There are currently 17 ongoing public inquiries in the UK .

Kemi Badenoch ’s enthusiasm for inquiries is a natural response to the Conservatives finding themselves in opposition.

When they were in government, the Tories resisted precisely the probe they now call for.

Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick turned up on the BBC to tell us what, beyond the screamingly obvious, had changed.

Jenrick never did set out what exactly a never-ending inquiry would solve.

The Scottish Child Abuse Inquiry was established in 2015 , with instructions to report by 2019 .

It is still going, having cost 88 million , and seen six Conservative leaders.

Anyone who thinks this would take less than five years is frankly deluded.
