I don't "presume to speak for the British people", Jim. It is the bits of paper they put in the ballot box that do that. Can you really not get into your head that it is their votes that demonstrate beyond argument that it is they, not just me, who don't want the doctrinaire bullying of all you lefty lot?

And it's a bit behind the fair to go on parroting "ThatcherThatcherThatcher" as if that were any sort of useful contribution to any sort of debate at this time of day. In case you hadn't noticed, she is as dead as Queen Anne.

Regards as ever

it is not so simple Mike, it is not just their votes but it is also the system of voting,plus rearrangements of election districts [gerrymandering] that have contributed to election results.
