Superb as usual Pete. The cowardice of our political leaders will ensure a dank future for our children and they will in turn deny that better times ever existed. Our inability to take control of this lumbering super tanker will lead to a battery hen existence for those that follow us. Brexit could have been so much more.
You are not paying attention Pete or being willfully blind. We have no one to vote for because we have been captured by the Party system that many agree is no longer fit for purpose. The only way out of this is by working with constituencies to identify their key principles and find someone that will represent those key principles on their behalf and stand as an Independent.
We just need to look at Rochdale as an example. The Independent came second without a set of Key principles. Imagine what could be done if he had engaged with his constituents to find out what they really wanted to get behind other than 'This is for Gaza'!
A group called the Independent Alliance showed some initial promise, but unfortunately, they have fallen by the wayside. Take a look at Andrew Bridgens new website as an Independent as it shows you a glimpse of the way forward.
It's easy to sit on X and other social media sites bleating about the state of things. We actually need to start doing something other than carping otherwise things will never change. We have got to soft, too comfortable and always think it's someone else's responsibility to do something about it. This is on each and every one of us and if it goes south at the next GE, We the People have only ourselves to blame for sitting on our backsides and bleating on social media about how bad things are. We need to WTFU before it's too late!

“A Deadlock of Mediocrities” would make a good book title - a follow-on to “A Confederacy of Dunces”
