Can't even gerrymander properly

 

It ought to be shocking that a man who was a minister when the government introduced voter ID can now stand up and say that it was indeed an attempt to prevent people voting, and the only thing wrong with it was that the people it prevented from voting were the wrong ones. Ought to be, but somehow isn’t. Still, failing even to get gerrymandering right is an admission of incompetence; and shouting it out loud a sign of the complete shamelessness which is the new normal. They’re incompetent and shameless, they know it, they know we know it, and they don’t even attempt to conceal it any more, boasting about it instead. They really do think we're all stupid.
