Despite being a staunch Labour Party supporter and trade unionist, Harold Macmillan (Lord Stockton), was my favourite Prime Minister.

There was a myth however, years ago, perpetrated by certain sources, that the Tories, just like King Charles I, had a divine right to govern. Even a few proletarians believed this dogma.

The left dominates the political scene today, and one cannot even perceive the Tories being in government.

Foreign Nationals enter Britain to escape "oppressive regimes", as the United Nations is too weak to enforce President Roosevelt's idea of the "Four Freedoms".

Indigenous Britons have long been contributing national insurance and income tax and other revenues.

Shouldn't these immigrants be required to learn English and undertake a few hours' work every week?

Where are the Tories? They were not elected to support Labour.

As Professor Jimmy Edwards MA, DFC once retorted: "Wake up in the back there, you back-benchers - the country's going downhill."
