Why did you delete a comment which was, entirely reasonably and politely, critical of you?
ReplyDeleteIt was off topic.
ReplyDeleteNo it wasn't. You described Brown as "One Party Brown". I noted that you are you are attempting to form a new political movement made up of people who are currently members of both the Labour and Conservative Parties, which you believe are destined for oblivion, and that you are therefore "One Party Lindsay". Except that you haven't achieved anything yet, and are therefore "No Party Lindsay".
ReplyDeleteWell, yes, I only ever intend to be in one party, if any. (I might well be dead by the time that the tendencies in question crystalise into parties as we have known them, if they ever do). And I have a pretty clear idea as to what any such party would look like, indeed be like.
ReplyDeleteBut I don't want it to be the only party in Britain. Still less do I want it to fight elections pretending to be two or three different parties when it isn't, thus denying any real choice to the electorate. That's the difference.
