What you said!
What happened to the Labour Party, anyway? When did it get taken over my Maggie Thatchers more clubbable nephews?  I think we should all rue the day that Tony Blair was born. But that of course is a cheap shot at any single poltician, no matter how loathsome. What broader forces acted to bring these men to power? I suppose the history has been written, but if you know of good source for education of foreigners like myself, I'd be grateful.

Oh grief, long story.

I think TBG and Metatone have a better view than I, but maybe I ought to write a diary with my view on causes and timeline and then let battle commence in comments them correct me . At the end of which we might have a proper narrative.

Whatever you have time to jot down, even in the way of links, would of great interest, at least to me, Helen.

BTW, what is the Fen Causeway?

There are numerous theories.

However the Fens are a low lying marshland in Cambridgeshire/Lincolnshire. So it seems like good advice to keep to the causeway in order to avoid getting wet.
