Yep, I'm all in on writing that. There's also some forthcoming research about radula marginata that might revive my plan to make a film about the liverwort. I'm not very good at not working; that's where AMPP came from -- my workaholism, and plus I saw the opportunities for comedy inherent in chatGPT. I'd rather like to make the party a real thing, though. The Manifesto is a joke beginning, but I think it delimits the parameters of AMPP. I realise that as a radical leftie, I just made myself a massive target by espousing that anti-AUKUS policy, but that could be another nuclear-free moment and I hope that Chris Luxon sees the logic of remaining outside of that.
