I agree but the bigger takeaway for me is that we urgently have to stop believing that a fresh politician is going to come riding to our rescue. It’s an infantilising fantasy
Most are beholden to an economic system that enables them to wield what masquerades as power and a Corbyn or Polanski who seem to promise radical change will never be allowed to succeed
No-one is coming to save us. Our efforts & hopes need urgently to be redirected to #communityaction
