Stuart Frisby on Nostr: I know it’s not cool to be sincere about politics or the Labour Party, but as a kid ...
I know it’s not cool to be sincere about politics or the Labour Party, but as a kid who grew up on shitty council estates, attended state schools and got a leg up from *nobody*, seeing people who had starts in life like mine sitting at the cabinet table feels like a world away from last week.
And yes, we’ll all judge them on their record in 5 years time, of course, but the very idea that the people running the country now know what it’s like to actually live in it is fantastic.
