“Ah, that must be exhausting.”
Odds are, Brooker probably thinks it’s broken:
But this is just one small part of the ongoing, almighty detox of everything. There’s been such an immense purge, such an exhaustive ethical audit, no one’s come out clean. There’s muck round every arse. But if the media’s rotten and the government’s rotten and the police are rotten and the city’s rotten and the church is rotten – if life as we know it really is fundamentally rotten – what the hell is there left to believe in? Alton Towers? Greggs the bakers? The WI?
But, good heavens above, do not call this “ahead of its time.” This shit is old.

You are quite right, India. A few pints and a football game, methinks.
