Exactly this. It really, truly has been unrelentingly awful. It's been fourteen years of cruelty and since brexit it's just been a government hell bent on self enrichment. No sense of public service whatsoever. Absolutely unforgiveable.
Say what you like about Starmer, and I do, but he shares my complete po faced sense of humour failure when people arse around on public money. Also I get the distinct sense that he dislikes the same tories I dislike. Properly dislikes them. I'm down with that.
Spot on, both of you.
The task ahead is daunting though and reminds me of a scene in A very British coup:
Freshly elected PM, with landslide, is quietly asked by a friend something like "we're going to get it right this time, aren't we?"
I pray to God we do.
