The crisis is here, we are in it, and it is worse than we imagined. Politics is incapable of rising to the urgency of this moment. We can’t afford to carry on like this.
People must come together to face these crises. In 2 weeks we will take to the streets. What will you do?

Resigning ministers get an exit payment equal to 1/4 of their ministerial salary.
Has anyone totalled up the cost of the last 36 hours to the tax payer as a result of the Prime Minister’s intransigence and limpet like quality?
