You know he's a TV writer for political shows right? He's not just some bloke down the pub

Jon Harvey seems pretty educated as per a political quiz interview. My main objection would be he doesn't necessarily have public administration/organizational management skills/experience.
But then I saw the interviews run on residents and who they'll be voting for, most of them creaky pensioners and most of them saying something like "I don't know anything about what's happening but I'm going to vote for Farage again anyway". I won't be surprised at all if Farage gets in again, tribalism and apathy strikes again.
