I like how Zack is winning over the old Labour voting blocs one by one.
The horror of having only a two party system and both teams are locked into a death spiral with no third party to jump to.
Good luck to Canada and their third party, the only way is up from where it was!

Proud moment.
I had to fill out a 'parent view' government form for my kid's school's ofsted inspection this week.
There were a lot of boxes to tick - ticked em. But then there was an empty box to fill in with views, so I wrote a bunch of positive things about my kid's experience at the school - and a final negative thing about there not being enough teachers due to the national crisis. Topped it off with 'abolish ofsted'.
