   ...not with CM* doing such socko biz in England:   
      
   'It's all very reminiscent of a passage from this reactionary's favourite   
   socialist, which - like so much of his work - is well worth revisiting:   
   "England is perhaps the only great country whose intellectuals are ashamed   
   of their own nationality. In left-wing circles it is always felt that there   
   is something slightly disgraceful in being an Englishman and that it is a   
   duty to snigger at every English institution, from horseracing to suet   
   puddings. It is a strange fact, but unquestionably true, that almost any   
   English intellectual would feel more ashamed of standing to attention during   
   "God Save the King" than of stealing from a poor box."'

   * Cultural Marxism. It is a mistake to use PC now: it has become neutered   
   through repetition: Typical Lefties (see our own Martha B) also feel   
   terribly comfortable and well rehearsed in the arguments, even when they're   
   idiotic: 'bah, *that* was in the 80s', 'oh you just want to call people   
   niggers without reproach' etc.

   George was Turkish, dude...' etc
