Labour has walked into a net-zero trap of its own making

When I go to a film, there are certain things I expect: the popcorn only affordable with a small loan; the endless standing up and sitting down as people push past, suddenly sure the film will look better from the row in front; these are a given. What I don’t expect is to be plunged into the film’s set, spending two hours wandering through the real-life version of the world on screen. But that’s what you get when you sign up to Secret Cinema.

I booked a ticket to its latest screening, and arrived at the specified time and place without knowing what film I would actually be seeing.
