Dreamt last night I was actually in On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Except I had to do a dance routine with Lazenby. But he wouldn't practise because he was busy filming the ski chase. And I felt sad whenever I saw Diana Rigg

Before anyone asks: no, it's not fair that Labour won a landslide in 2024 on 34% of the vote.
That's evidence of a system that's badly malfunctioning & a reason to act before things get worse.
It's not an argument for keeping an injustice in place till everyone's had the chance of a crazy outcome.
