Because, you know, how much worse can it get?

And again, that how much worse than it can it get is something I hear so often.

And I don't know if you get it, but I've been particularly depressed recently in the most recent round of focus groups.

In every single focus group, I've had someone saying either I'm planning on leaving the UK or if I could leave the UK, I would because they can't see an end to it.

I think it's too expensive.

I just don't think there are the prospects.

And how you address that, I mean, it sounds a bit cheesy, but we almost need a little bit sort of, you know, Barack Obama style hope, right?

Because that's what's missing.

And I think Farage and Polanski do offer a bit more of that.

And I think, you know, the good thing about this is it does suggest we are still at least a higher trust society than the US, right?

Because if you're doing this in the US, you're like, we're going to store these ballot boxes and not count.

There would be outrage about sort of rigged elections.

And I remember, I think it was the last general election.

It might have been.

The local election before it, there was a polling station that couldn't open because they had a flood or something.

And they just had the ballot box in the back of someone's car with people coming and doing it.

Now, I think there's something kind of lovely about that.

But again, in lots of other countries, you'd have had people crying foul.

But I should say, I'm not just for my own professional sanity.

I'm a big fan of overnight counts.
