Re: Tory Tactics
just been watching a doco on historic europe in which it was suggested that true democracy never started until the old order had left europe and founded a new order in America without royalty hindering it. England in particular is a 'theocracy' not a true democracy - maybe the Brits all feel safe as long as the Queen is around and therefore don't really see any need to vote for mere underlings!
