I wasn’t sure how Cummings’ idea differed from all the other “mad ramblings from a narcissistic egomaniac” we’ve seen from the Tories lately. And then I read this:
The goal is to win in 2028, govern for two terms and then self-destruct as a legal entity, so the project is credibly hardwired to be fundamentally different to a normal party
I’m really struggling to see what’s not “mad” about creating a party that is designed to self-destruct after two terms. Unless it’s merely an acknowledgement of reality that every party is fighting like cats in a sack after 10 years of government, and since it’s going to happen anyway, might as well plan for it?
