One thing I think is unhealthy about the Labour party's forever war is that it's baked in that there's always a chunk of the left that's rooting for the leader to fail because it proves them *right*. This feels like it may, on balance, be a bad thing.

Had a nice outside lunch with a lovely friend today, and was just thinking how maybe things weren't that bad, when I remembered that this is literally the thing we're about to not be able to do for god knows how long and actually things are that bad aren't they, they're awful
I think maybe this winter I'm going to get into going to bed really, really early? maybe that could be my thing
