I hate him because, not knowing anything about him and after years of the Tories, I believed in him. I hate him because he turned the only feasible alternative to the Tories into a pale shadow of them: the few good things Labour has done while in power are nothing to be grateful for, being less than the bare minimum of what a true Labour government should have achieved. And I hate him because sensible, reasonable people who aren't committed to one party or the other will vote the Tories in again just to be rid of him and his legacy.
I hope that I haven't been imagining the stark terror I keep seeing in the eyes above the trademark grin. I hope he has spent his entire time in office scared shitless. And I hope that when he is out of politics, he is able to face the truth about himself and what he has done, and seek some kind of redemption.
