Bless Polly’s optimism, hopefully not copium.

If she's on Burnham's side, I feel less optimistic about any change he will bring.

I think you are missing the big point that there is not much difference between the tories and labour. There is, apparently, no alternative and this is one of the reasons that the country is abandoning the centre ground and polarising.

A lame duck polling as bad as Starmer is, obstinately using the levels of party bureaucracy to hold back any alternative is only going to make a reform Government increasingly likely.

I find it impressive that the same hierarchical structure responsible for failures like Hillsborough, Windrush, and the Post Office scandal (amongst many others) has the hubris to tell us to trust it with this kind of invasive monitoring - it is really quite astonishing.

To the incompetent elites: make sure that your institutions are trustworthy enough before asking for the kind of data that would dramatically magnify the abuses of power, coverups and institutional failures that would be possible.

Sorry, we couldn't prosecute the shoplifters so we can't give you the £1 reward. They are still out on the streets though and know who you are, so watch out.

I'd rather go back to burning coal, thanks.
