| The new Lib-Dem-Tory symbol |
The irony is that none of this should have been necessary. Mr Gordon Brown handed Mr Cameron an landslide victory on a platter that said Mr Cameron then squandered into a hung Parliament. I firmly believe that if the Tories offered the voters a truly conservative manifesto that included a promise to repeal everything New Labour ever did, half of what John Majors did, a quarter of what Lady Thatcher did, and promised an immediate Day One repeal of the Human Rights Act followed the next day by a straight up or down referendum on Britain leaving the EU, the Conservatives would have a majority that would stand for the next two generations.

One of the few things ever said by Eternal Lieutenant John Forbes Kerry that wasn't totally witless was that the entire European spectrum of "liberal" to "conservative" would fit neatly inside the "liberal wing" of the American Democratic Party. I'd say this just proves that, like a stopped (analogue) clock, even Kerry is right at least twice a day just by accident.
Unfortunately, this leaves any rational Englishman, or rational European (think; the late Jean-Francois' Revel) with no recourse short of packing up and moving. Which I notice our gracious host, here, did a long time ago.
I hope that England may one day be reclaimed. I doubt that the Continent can ever be. (With the exception of Finland. ;-))
