Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.

The lack of short term memory in British politics at the moment is quite something. Was everyone in Number 10 in a coma for the last five years or have they genuinely forgotten how this exact same strategy worked out for the last Government?
