It shows that British politics is *not real*, that it is just a dumb soap opera in which some of the silliest people in the country can completely rewrite the story arc without the characters noticing or commenting on it at any time they like, just by deciding that they want to.
The press installing an honest-to-god moron as PM via five months of screaming threats and propaganda, then annihilating him even quicker with dumb scandals they knew about all along, does not show that politics is capricious and volatile. It shows it is *insulting horseshit*.

@flying_rodent He seems annoyed that a "historic opportunity" has been pissed away... an opportunity to do what? What good could the tories have done if they had someone else in charge? The thought of what they could have done horrifies me.
@flying_rodent Sport for people who like to brag that they don't like sport.
