Dear Prime Minister

[la_marquise]

Dear Prime Minister,

So it's appropriate to tell a female colleague to 'Calm down, dear' in public, is it, and then claim that it was a joke and a cultural reference, and that makes it okay? It's appropriate that your boon companion (and our chancellor of the exchequer) to find it hilarious? It's appropriate for one of your other ministers and fellow travellers to make a speech claiming that it is all the fault of middle class women if working class men haven't gone to university, because those women used space when they could have got married and had children?

I didn't vote for you. I probably would never vote for you and your party, because I oppose what you stand for. But you just ensured that I will never under any circumstances develop any respect for you, either.

yours,

La Marquise.

Well, technically unless you lived in Witney you didn't even have the opportunity to vote for Cameron... which would allow a perfectly correct, but somewhat misleading headline "99.9% of UK electorate didn't vote for Cameron!"

But I do know what you mean... and I can't say I have any noticeable respect for any of the present bunch, of any party, and certainly not for Cameron and cronies.
