Tory Anarchism?
No, there is nothing Tory about it. The pseudo-conservative hatred of the State in all its manifestations has issued, first in the anti-politics of the parliamentary expenses "scandal" (not a penny was ever paid out either for the moat or for the duck house, none of this had anything to do with policy, and so on), and now, both in the IPSA fiasco that that has created, and in this week's flagrant contempt of Parliament, technically so called. Thank you, Margaret Thatcher.
