Mr Dale,
ReplyDeleteWith respect, Mr Hannan purports to make the conservative (small 'c') case for disestablishment. There can be no 'Tory' case, the Tory Party historically being the party of establishment. He might be driving at a Whig case, but, as a loyal Cromwellian, he is basically having a gripe at Christmas.
