Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
New Banner on the Salisbury
"I would no more give the vote to the Irish than to the Hottentot."
Lord Salisbury, Prime Minister of Great Britain & Ireland, Exeter speech February 1892
Curious, as Denis MacShane points out, that most of Lord Salisbury's successors from Cameron's lot to UKIP and beyond, including the Dublin editions of the papers they read and write for, are depending on their Irish Hottentots to vote 'NO' (again) to Lisbon and Europe on Friday. Even curiouser: Sinn Fein's in the same eurosceptic camp.
Any suggestions for similarly suitable banners for those other Tory memorials of our High Street: the Beaconsfield and the (newly excavated) Wellington ?
