  • I know this isn't what you're saying, but it grinds my gears that these disingenuous fuckwhits make out like checks and balances on not being able to do whatever you want whenever you want is a conspiracy against them.

    This is the situation as it ever was. You as a politician want to do something, and then some killjoy comes along and points out all the impracticalities and defines the scope of what's achievable.

    Look at Labour's position on charitable status for schools. They put it on their wishlist when there was no prospect of power anytime soon, then they relalise they actually have to work out the practical implementation only to discover it's a massive a ballache, so they go for a narrower but viable alternative.

    It's called being a fucking grown-up. But yet the party of pragmatism, common sense, and stability cannot grasp this. They're not even the dregs of the barrel. They're the crud that's accumulated underneath the barrel because it's been sitting there too long.
