@40cd5708 @c22052a6 The political media in the US and the UK are so invested in politics as soap opera they have to actively disengage the links between cause and effect so the drama can be ramped up and consequences be damned. That's how on this side of the pond we have journalists who have stridently supported a bonfire of public services suddenly asking in all seriousness why everything's so shit and getting cross about the ensuing mockery.
