I'm witnessing people choosing a Blue or Red political UK or US leader, because they deeply dislike the alternative.

They are choosing the lesser of two evils for them.

My sense is that whoever 'triumphs' as PM or President will experience a pyrrhic victory. The current two party system is corruptly creaking at the seams.

Like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, we've finally glimpsed behind both the Blue and Red curtains; and realised the same corrupt oligarchs are pulling the political strings of both parties.

The UK, US and indeed the western world is in the throes of political and societal change.

For me, it's a change to embrace, and yes, it's likely to be chaotic, but at the same time it's an opportunity to choose a world we're excited to be a part of, rather than settling for the lesser of two evils...
