One thing I really hoped for was a reset of national values towards positive service, compassion, national character etc which could come from not always shitting themselves about an election. Sigh.

God, this 10000%. They're trapped in a right-wing media bubble and behave as if that media bubble will destroy them tomorrow. They could tell the whole media apparatus to fuck off whilst they do some really great reforms, but instead they are shitting bricks every day.
