Quote of the day from Daniel Finkelstein

We, the folk obsessed with politics, would do well to remember this over the coming weeks:

We will have two separate elections this year, held at the same time but in different worlds. One will feature the traditional knockabout, complete with press conferences, posters and battle buses. The other will screen out the political noise, ignore the political claims, only skim the coverage and feature instead the issues and experiences that voters encounter in their daily life. The result of this second election will be the decisive one.

A very important point.
