I'm still bemused by the "disenfranchised" allegation. Like Margaret Pilkington, I think this chap needs to use a dictionary.

I wonder what life and experience has made of me? My mother's father was a Tory councillor who, after retiring from being Station Master at Church Station in the 1920s, owned a baker's shop run by my aunt. My father was a Socialist, despite being in business for over 40 years and being a member of a Conservative Club, who greatly admired Harold Wilson.

My husband was from a very Labour background but had Conservative leanings and I have tended towards Socialism/Liberalism for a lot of my adult life.

I have no political affiliations what so ever, I mistrust all of them. I guess I'm just a mongrel.
