Eeh, remember that time when the Metropolitan Left would despise anyone who stood up for tradional British standards of morality? Back in the old days, that is. Now, the Left has done one of their periodic 30-year flips and have now come out against liberal ideas about sex'n'stuff. Of course, the scent was in the air after Harpy Harperson's earlier attack on men, and 'Tits' Smith's attack on men, but now they are getting serious.
Ten years ago the Left would have huffed themselves into a double hernia at the thought of lapdancing clubs being regulated. Now, there's no stopping them. You can't smoke any more; drinking is verboten, if not actually banned yet; how long before admiring a picture of Liz Hurley in the Daily Hellograph is a capital offence?
The Left undergoes this magnetic shift of opinion every other generation or so - in the 1930s it was Prohibition in every sphere, while in the 1960s liberalism ruled. Now, in the first decade of what I confidently predict will be mankind's most unpleasant century, authoritarianism is back on the agenda. I know these people are ruled by dogma and hard-wired hatreds, but can't any of them read?
