Back to the Not-So-Much-Fun-Anymore Factory. Our presidentialised party, like a fish, rots from the head down.
Tony promises a spinless re-launch but is abstracted. His mates have deserted. He’s lost a year. Mandy minces into the vacuum saying he isn’t. We mill around waiting for Gordo.
University fees are dead if the Tories scrap them. Foundation hospitals have become meaningless. The cleaning up bill on the Long-Short war will be huge and prolonged.
It’s a good excuse for increasing taxes. Which we should do anyway.
