I listened fleetingly to Lucy Powell interviewed on #r4today and as I was drowned by her BS I found myself reflecting on what it was like for me to listen to Labour MPs the last time they were in power and before they took us to war in Iraq.
Back then, I was in my mid to late 30s and naive, and often enthused by what I heard.
I’ve learned a lot since then. But political parties don’t. They’re mostly stuck in time. And then we’re invited to invest in them for change 🤷♂️
