Corbyn's Labour policies were largely popular across the board, but voters who are historically wary of Lab wouldn't go anywhere near him. Greens have no such baggage, so opportunities to show how our current politics is damaging us all, regardless of socioeconomics, could be fertile ground.

Pleased to report that she survived this night. Turns out that high blood pressure caused her retina to detach, which caused her blindness in 1 eye. So she's now on monthly painkiller shots, twice daily cream for her hyperthyroidism, and daily tablet for her blood pressure.

I once sent an email to tens of thousands of the org's supporters and donors encouraging them to 'spread the word fart and wide'.

Love that we now have a Jewish politician from London, a northern Muslim gardener, & a community & arts campaigner from the midlands as our new vocally socialist leadership team. Been in the party for over 20 years, and have genuinely never been this excited for the party & hopeful for the future

- Hey, John. I'm making some silly kids film about dinosaurs. Wanna do some music?

<some time later>

- Here you go, Steven. I have distilled the very essence of awe, magic and majesty for your dinosaur film score. This is my gift to you, and to the world.

- Sound. Cheers, John.
