No I do not. I take the manifestation of the point as made by Keith to be the mark of a double standard. Keith may well have opposed the invasion of Iraq - how would I know - but people just like Keith would have taken the one-million-out vs. 59 million stay-at-homes as evidence that we wanted that war. That's all. Anyone wishing to take the one million on the banks of the Thames (police estimate: 50,000 ;-))as a sure sign that the whole nation wants the monarchy had better remember Red Robbo and his show-of-hands ballots in the 70s...
