• The far-right is never ok.

    I find it unfortunate that so many very old friends of mine are so painfully narrow-minded. Last week I was accused of being part of the "tofu-munching, non-patriotic, tree-hugging great unwashed looney left". I've even been asked if I'm converting to Islam.

    My political persuasion isn't anything of the sort - I'm just not right wing in any way of the sort. However left of centre I may be, I'm not remotely right wing and the views of these so-called patriots are unfounded and short-sighted.
