There's too much being published now that is fake news, that is trolling others, that isn't something born out by facts, or simply that represents a view I don't share. Its easy to despair in face of that onslought. I'd rather type by ha'penny worth.
I'm a liberal and proud of it. I see merit in some policies from most parties. Elections are about the art of the possible and pragmatic ways forward - starting with the wold as it is today, moving to the world envisioned in 5 years time. That is inherently imperfect. Elections require broad churches to be formed across interest groups, with all the compromises that entails. We don't have the time or the money to stop the world in order to fix everything. We must fix what matters, a bit, and move on.
Professionally, I write normally for quite a precise technical/management audience. I don't work or write for publication. So my style may take a little while to evolve.
This also isn't a place for trolls. I reserve the right to delete offensive of irrelevant comments, or just ignore them. But those who are polite, relevant and articulate are likely to get some traction. I might be a liberal, but engaging comment from Tory, UKIP, Labour, Green or Communist - as well as Liberal - is what I'm here for.
