And of course, John, your audience show a great deal more intelligence than do the suits in Whitehall who are still living in an early Victorian era when the peasants had better know their place. They haven't yet realised that tugging forelocks to one's supposed betters is not done anymore. Not forelocks but a word that is very similar. I cannot concieve of any logical reason why they should want to alienate so many of Her Majesty's most loyal subjects. Whatever faith I once had for the British sense of justice and fair play has evaporated into the mists of Whitehall obfuscation.
