What a force. Finally a unicorn. A politician with principles. Everything becomes simple again when you have principles. When every decision is met with the questions, “what is in my interests” the level of complexity multiplies as game theory kicks in. But to be principled is to simplify. There is a strength in tying oneself to the best ideas over time and letting these tried and tested ideas lead you.
