The relentless short-termism and stupidity that pervades our politics can be attributed to three things, IMO:

2. The Westminster bubble.
3. Our electoral system.
They are all very closely linked.

"It shows that every book is the wreck of a perfect idea — but that the wreckage can be beautiful too. Anyway, to ask whether it is a novel or not misses the point. Who cares? It’s just a damned good book."
