To bastardise Dickens: let me tell you a tale of two progressive parties. One is experiencing the best of times (for now), the other the worst of times (well, not quite — it has suffered some doozies — but it certainly isn’t having much fun). One is heralding an age of wisdom, the other an age of foolishness. I could palaver on about belief and incredulity, lightness and darkness, but you get the picture.
The former is the US Democrats, who are riding high after Kamala Harris subbed in for Joe Biden as the party’s presidential candidate.
