''means that a creative work or entity has evolved and reached a point in which it has exhausted its core intent''

More or less fits. ''Selected'' is now looking like a ''creative work'', etc

So my apologies. I may have been led to a position of jumping the shark. Whatever the true position I assure I did not intend to misinform.

Couldn't remember whether you'd said you were a member or whether I was confusing you with your late aunt.

It never occured to me that their might be intent; just trying to understand exactly where they were.

Had a spat with a far right wing expat on another forum who insisted that various news reports in MSM meant ZP was the approved (prospective) candidate. All MSM stuff seemed to be drawn from Polanski's interview with a local paper which in reality said he'd 'allow his name to go forward'. Not sure he's said anything on the record since.

Some reports, the New Statesman in particular, suggest that for a number of reasons his candidacy is not a foregone conclusion.

Monkers was a long term member but then quit suddenly in about 2018 and rejoined a couple of years later to the best of my memory. I was a member for a short while too, but also quit and joined another party. I joined the Greens again a while back. I'll reconsider when the subscription is due.
