@tregeagle The media and the PLP were no better last election, when # lost by a whisker to someone who, while being scarcely more than a moral vacuum in a leopard-print skirt, was at least not Boris Johnson. I can only put this down to the rise of the Trumpian need for chaos, the growing segment of the population who have forgotten what hope feels like and just want a leader who will burn it all down as quickly as possible.
