 I've just realised that I'm the same age as Rishi Sunak.

Not really meaningful in any sense, but it's the first time I've been the same age as the Prime Minister. It's kind of a headfuck when you're raised to believe that your elders are your betters, but now the PM is the same age as me and is definitely not my better.

I'm the same age as Suella Braverman too, and she's fucking evil. 
 @b18e71d1 Oh dear I'm older than him.

We're starting to get Gen X politicians moving through. It's disappointing when one sees their generation isn't as cool as they thought it was.
