Absolutely incredible how quickly this entire project has proven disastrous and repellent - literally, as soon as the public got a good look at what they’d bought - while all the scolding finger-waggers who forced it over the line stand around loudly talking about anything else.

Out of interest, should it happen again, any tips?

Had an adolescent one trapped in my courtyard. I’ve got a pregnant wife and young children so was reluctant to let it in but did manage to move furniture around to give it space to fly. It ended up squeezing through the railing into next doors! As of this morning it’s gone so hoping it took flight 😊

I don’t think it’s complex: we reached the upper limit of this economic/political system’s ability to deliver 17 years ago, then it exploded and we have been burning furniture to keep it going ever since. We’re not the first society it’s happened to and we won’t be the last.
