Maybe it's true & maybe he thinks it; but has any MP ever crossed the floor saying "I've changed my mind"? Much easier to go with "it's not me that's moved, it's them"

I don't know if this account in particular is guilty of this but how many people will retweet the "my entire life has been a forever war in the middle east and financial crash after crash" and then simply never ever apply any of that material awareness to cultural industries?
