Time and again it feels like if they just bat sensibly for 2 hours they'll win the match. Lord's 2023. Oval 2024. Oval 2025. Now Perth 2025. But they insist on coming out and batting like morons.

So you’ve narrowed this down to a very small subsection of a very small subsection of a minority of a small minority in this country who might (not are, might) be offended.
I can’t help feeling you’ve rather proven my point.

I hear way more people telling me how offended the left are by flags and books than I’ve ever actually seen people on the left offended by flags or books.

In the exact same way the Elizabeth Line was about capacity through the centre of London and the increased journey times (e.g.) to Heathrow were ultimately a marketing gimmick. The general point that "if you build it, they will come" for HS2 still stands.

HS2 will be exactly the same. Five years after it opens people will be going “wait, why the fuck didn’t we build this up to Manchester and Leeds?” and then they’ll build it anyway. Hopefully through Rishi Sunak’s garden.
