Cummings condemns England's political 'duffers'. But our problems are structural | Owen Jones

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : From Iraq to Brexit to Covid, nothing is learned, just more illusions, and so this country will stumble from needless disaster to self-inflicted calamity, seemingly for ever more.
60% : Even the very mention of Iraq provokes eye rolls and mutterings of "oh, move on will you", often by individuals who will be cursing Brexit on their deathbeds in decades to come, because for some a crisis over British trade and liberal values is regarded as of far greater import than the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Arabs.
56% : It is a logic that was taken to its extreme end by Brexit, in which much of the political centre fused an abandonment of Occam's razor - that the simplest explanations are the likeliest - with conspiratorial thinking.
50% : Is this truly a novelty in a country in which media moguls unashamedly use their empires to secure their political ends, and where Tory MPs tell journalists that their desire to slash taxes is driven by funding from "rich City donors"?
40% : Britain's rupture with the European Union was so obviously an act of self-harm, and an affront to liberal values that had remained intact whoever was in political office, that it must simply be treated as illegitimate: an absurd blip in the matrix won via machiavellian chicanery (enter Cummings),
