One of the key difficulties in dealing with the UK's wide range of problems from the #NHScrisis to #productivity stagnation, from the #housingcrisis to the #costoflivingcrisis, is that for the moment every crisis is refracted through the psycho-drama of internal #Tory party politics.

Until we have a less self-serving, solipsistic, entitled & corrupt generation of politicians in power we will never get to grip with what ails this country!

@ChrisMayLA6 All of the above is true, but I would add that, along with corrupt, entitled and self-serving, they are also astoundingly mediocre and incompetent. Never have we suffered such a crop of politicians so stupid and ignorant. I feel that Brexit was like a filter for removing intelligence, humility and empathy from those in power.
