It's my party and I'll cry if I want to, Part 1
Part of the fun in being British is that it doesn't mean very much, and we don't have to salute the flag/pledge allegiance to the head of state. So, in the age of globalisation, Europeanisation, Scottish and Welsh nationalism, what does the party that used to stand for something, but now is just spin, smart arse rich people and American lackeys, do? Pledges of allegiance and celebrating Britishness. I'm almost nostalgic for Saint Tony's sanctimonius self-justifications. More seriously, as a lifelong Labour voter, what do you do? Lib Dems - pathetic, Greens -powerless, potential puritans, Tories - enemies of the people, who I would rather shoot myself than vote for.
