What Zack is paraphrasing (and exemplifying) is Raymond Williams' “To be truly radical is to make hope possible rather than despair convincing.” Naturally centrists are falling over themselves to fulfil their sacred duty towards the second part.

Now this is how you announce your election victory! Finally the Green Party have good comms - and finally they have a leader who’s totally confident using anti-elite populist rhetoric that will enthuse a far wider voter base. No more meekness!

Ian Hislop, "Farmers didn't pay inheritance tax at all, and now they're going to pay half of what everybody else pays.. And the limits they set on them are really pretty high" "So it's meant to stop wealthy landowners buying lots of land in order to avoid taxes" "People who come to mind.. Jeremy Clarkson who originally bought his farm in order to avoid paying any tax on it" "Who has now become the champion of the small farmer who is probably not going to get hit by this, and is going to end up worse off for lots of other reasons" Victroia Derbyshire, "Why are you here?" Jeremy Clarkson, "I'm here to support farmers" VD, "So it's not about you and the fact that you bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax?" JC, "Classic BBC.. It's not the fact that I bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax" VD, "You told the Sunday Times in 2021 that's why you bought it" JC shakes his head Ian Hislop, "It's not as though he doesn't have any history with the Beeb, she's quite lucky he didn't punch her in the face with cold food"

There can be no other country in the world where the majority of newspapers and radio/tv stations make every effort to bring down a democratically elected government before it has had time to deliver on its promises. It is quite deplorable after 14 years of failure by the Tories.

There are calls for Lord Eric Pickles to resign from the House of Lords he complained to the Grenfell Inquiry that he was missing important lunches. Like if he needs to resign. RT if he needs to be fired.
