    I'm not a Tory, but find myself reluctantly agreeing. Churchill was a miraclulous godsend for WW2; Thatcher - lost the plot towards the end, and did make the Tories look and feel cold and uncaring. If Maggie had tempered her radicalism with a bit more publicly obvious sympathy, a lot more people would miss her. I think.

      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        Surely you mean 2007- . Suggest he's less than perfect and you'll soon find SO13 on your doorstep.

            I'll also suggest 1855-1858 and 1859-1865.

                Was it rat infested during those periods?

                  Sorry to be picky but good old Winnie did not become PM until 1940. Also are you discounting his second spell 1951-1955?

                    I liked old Alec Douglas-Home. He did bugger all that I can recall, best sort of PM there is.
