"We have a very narrow idea of what power looks like - we’re on our twentieth Etonian Prime Minister."
@faizashaheen warns that the Conservatives may not have the easy ride they expected: youtube.com/watch?v=_abvdS9M…
"It reminds me of when the Miners’ wives groups formed - people who have never been involved in politics are now organisers. It's sown the seeds of something."

@faizashaheen on how important discussions needn't be so toxic: youtube.com/watch?v=qS8qxbsT…
"The business of policy creates social circumstances that affect the way we interact with one another."
