There’s an interesting article in this weekend’s Financial Times, about the emotional side of vote decision-making and how we fool ourselves if we believe that we vote wholly rationally.
It’s called The Anxious Election in the hard edition and Election anxiety and the problem with polarisation in the (less space-constrained) online version.
This paragraph referencing #Fairness stood out in particular for this blog. Even if the term rogue rage seems a little manufactured, what is discussed does seem a fair description of the mindset of some members of the electorate, and a tendency that some politicians seek to benefit from.
I am happy to confirm as ever that the Sense of Fairness blog is a purely personal endeavour
