Having said that, and I really hope that you won't take this wrong way, because it's not intended to be insulting, but I truly fear for the future of your country. You are a true blue strong British patriot, but Britain needs far more guys like yourself, and the trends of what I see going on there today is more than a little disturbing.
The trends you yourself have no experience of and pick up third or fourth hand?
The fact that Labour got whacked is encouraging. Blair is that rarest of animals -- a liberal who has proven himself to be able to rise above politics like people of old. To wit, a Statesman. I don't know whether to be happy or sad that the rats can't produce one like him.
