If what you guys are taking from all this is that things are looking up and that only an ideological puritan could think otherwise, don’t let me poop your party. I’m just quite a bitter and pessimistic person and it seems to me that politics has never been so detached from reality. Prime ministers sequentially installed and removed from office at the whim of newspapers nobody under 60 reads, the opposition leader lauded for having lied his way around the pesky democratic process and objectively heinous people pinging back and forth across the House of Commons wearing novelty masks. Chortles and backslaps. All this while we transition seamlessly from murderously bungled pandemic to all-but-ignored cost of living crisis. I just see no likelihood at all that any of these silly, self-interested people or the system they blew up the country to preserve are capable of addressing such problems or delivering any meaningful improvements, however modest, for anyone but themselves.
I mean I could be wrong in which case grand, I’ll be the first to admit it.
