Well, I do see a lot of our politics mentioned in their press about how confusing/confounding/odd our politics are so maybe this will help us to understand their politics. Or not. LOL! Mr. Delingpole has some rather good lines in this piece as you read on. Typical old timey elitist attitudes in play.

We need a USIP.

Exhibit B: Oliver Letwin. It wouldn't be quite true to say that Oliver Wetwin or Oliver Leftwing (as he is variously known) is the architect of everything that is wrong with the modern Conservative party. Just most of it. Damp rag, squishy centrist, Hampstead intellectual Letwin is, as the Conservatives' longstanding policy chief, the man who helped "detoxify" the Tory brand by cleverly ensuring that there was almost nothing Tory left in it. From gay marriage to green energy, from defence cuts to ring-fenced overseas aid, Letwin is the reason so many Conservatives loathe and despise the Cameron Conservative party.

Sounds like the UK's counterpart to our Boneheads, McCommies and Tokyo Roves.
