yeah the home office is bad, we should probably abolish it, shouldn't we
my gospel is spreading
one of my medium-term ambitions is for "abolish the home office" to become enough of a meme that I can legitimately ask to home office to comment on the fact people are calling for its abolition
How will I measure the success of this meme? Well, here's Google's autocomplete for "disgraced former" Image
yes the long term ambition is to abolish the home office
GUYS, TOGETHER WE CAN DO THIS
Abolish the Home Office.
surely this cannot be real. surely. surely.

surely?

Opposing turning areas of outstanding national beauty into brutalist slab housing estates makes you literally fascist
I think I could probably also get a few of you on board with "golf should count as a capital crime"?
"the need for HS2 is so great that it is imperative we bulldoze Amersham"

Right, here you go. Most Tory leaders succeed; most Labour leaders fail. jonn.substack.com/p/statisticall…

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.
But I only started paying proper attention c2014. How much was this true before then?
basically, how much is this Corbyn, how much is this Twitter, and how much has this just been always true only I wasn't looking before?
