The 2026 version is stark. Two locally extreme summers separated by 50 years of global climate change.
I'm generally happy to give someone like Burnham a bit of time to get things in order but I'm already pretty impatient for an explanation why an octogenarian holding a small protest placard gets a criminal record but 200 people dressed as paramilitaries blockading Dover can just get the train home.

65 per cent of Britons are owner-occupiers.
General elections are won in the Midlands.
Most people have a middle class occupation.
The United Kingdom's comparative advantage is in services.
These aren't facts that Philip Gould invented in order to make Labour feel sad.
These 2 assholes decided it was a good idea to assault my partner and subject us both to transphobia. It happened in Castle Meadow, Norwich at around 16:55 and the next 15 minutes after they came back twice to subject us to transphobia and tell us to die in a river.
