I'm a passive Lib Dem member. The membership are still our last hope to legalise khat again, other recreationals, smoking with consent, and permit the sharing of premises for the sale of sex. So I'm still a paid up member.

But I was gobsmacked to receive this in an email from the local party saluting the LD candidates that had lost "They have all done us proud and deserved a more just result." The very notion that there is a thing called results justice. Haiyaa.

Razor sharp. This is every single one of my dad's friends in leafy, neat and tidy, NIMBY, electric vehicle-owning semi-rural Derbyshire. Bed-blocking larger families from moving up the property ladder into their increasingly difficult to maintain empty nest four and five-beds, these retirees wring their hands over whether solar panels from China or dates from Israel are a morally defensible purchase, before driving to Waitrose in their EV to pick up their sauvignon in time for Gardener's World.
