You Can't Paint The Red Wall Green

And here it is.

You can have big infrastructure and investment, like HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail, for the proles who now decide the outcome of General Elections. Or you can keep the likes of Chris Packham and Greta Thunberg happy. You can't do both, and we all know which side Keir Starmer's Labour Party is going to choose.

But ours is the 2020 Vision of a new political party, a new think tank, a new weekly newspaper, a new fortnightly satirical magazine, a new monthly cultural review, a new quarterly academic journal, and so much else besides.

I will be standing for Parliament again here at North West Durham next time, so please give generously. In any event, please email davidaslindsay@hotmail.com. Very many thanks.
