    I mean you’re partly correct, but often change doesn’t come from politicians. It comes from the public saying “no fucking way”, and politicians eventually going “ah, fuck, it’ll cost us unless we do this”.

    It is fine to acknowledge corruption in the system, it is another thing to give up trying to fight it.

    Tony Benn “There are two flames burning in the human heart all the time. The flame of anger against injustice, and the flame of hope you can build a better world.”. We, and this planet, cannot afford let those flames go out.
