@marick I think I agree with you we’ve been talking oast each other. Undoubtedly that’s my fault!

I am extremely allergic to allocations of responsibility to voters or the electorate. I think that’s bullshit. But it’s quite distinct from intervening with voters, to persuade or inspire. That’s the best kind of politics! It’s the use as an explanatory device, the allocation of responsibility or blame, that I object to.
