Objectively, I've never been better off in my life.
But I look around at the fucking state of this country, that has somehow achieved a combination of high taxes and collapsing public services. I think of young people paying half their income on rent, with virtually no chance of buying a house. I think of the incredible stupidity of Brexit. I smell the fascists pulling on their jackboots and spouting their lies, conning people that they have easy answers to incredibly complex problems.
My conclusion is that it's not all about me, that we need a change of direction, and that Labour, for all its many faults, are our only hope. A threadbare hope, but all we've got. And, to be quite honest, I'm glad I'm not young.
