I agree it's a story with a familiar ending but it's overly flattering to read it as that intentional: the 'departmental minister pens reassuring piece to Green-curious voters in Guardian, PM froths at mouth in Sun' thing is not cynical, it's worse, it's stupid and dysfunctional.
Those skills look simple, but they’re not, and they’re vital.
it's also just so badly written with those lists of hyphenated cliches. the Sun can't have been happy being handed something that reads like a low effort GCSE parody of their style
