We’re breaking down power and mobilising communities; we’re segmenting audience data and throwing paper at delegates; we’re trimming down the menu, ordering pastries with egg and bribing people into interviews with stickers. There’s umbrella metaphors, Bruce Springsteen sets, outrage and hope. There’s a frankly heroic late night delivery, polite bathroom
