Tynan, I think Horatio's (and my) point is that social conservatism suits the religious particularly well, as they are, after all, socially conservative. For all its myriad faults, I don't think you can argue that Labour is as socially conservative as the Tories. The New Labour version of religion is almost painfully "young Anglican vicar" - as opposed to "young Evangelist vicar".
(Now I come to think of it, Private Eye got there first with the St Alban's Parish Newsletter.)
