Default Disco won't turn over

Started normal in the morning, stopped by the gas station and as I was leaving it wouldn't start. battery is charged, all dash lights come on till I try to start it like they usually would. The is no clicking, no cranking, just silence as I turn the key. Anyone have any idea of what could be wrong.
battery connection is good with no corrosion.
Fuses I could check at the moment we're okay

You can try smacking the starter to see if that has any effect. Do the dash lights go out when you try to engage start?

Mine sometimes does this. Try shifting into neutral, then back into park, then turn the ignition off and back on again. May have to try a couple of times. I think it's related to an XYZ switch that's very slightly out of alignment.
