The often messy end of a party's long hold on power is one of the key rituals of British politics. And the country feels renewed, for a few months at least. Yet this time, unusually, both the political era that seems to be ending and what is likely to replace it still have an undefined quality.
One reason for this is Keir Starmer's tight-lipped approach to being opposition leader. Yet there is a bigger, less examined reason why the morning after the next election is still hard to imagine. The past 14 years has been one of the strangest periods in our modern political history.
