Their aim is to make the real world fit the one they made up earlier. But they do it anyway. In Tory Britain the vast majority of the population exists only in order to be cowed and quelled. Life is a blood sport and ghastly chaos would ensue if MPs, the nobility and those of significantly independent wealth are not allowed to do exactly as they like, while everyone else does exactly what they're told. Flogging, uniforms, dogs and outdoor games which injure children are good and rather exciting - human rights, the environment, people who can't pronounce Magdalen and the poor in general are all ghastly.
Foreigners only insist on being that way to cause trouble for everyone else.
Of course, Labour Britain is identical. No one is truly righteous without facing moral challenges and, therefore, the Labour party has nobly exposed itself to all manner of suspicious loans, extra-marital and al fresco liaisons and exercises in blatant chicanery. Flogging, uniforms, dogs and outdoor games which injure children are cool and British - human rights, the environment, people who can't pronounce Magdalen and the poor in general get in the way of caring, responsible government. Foreigners only insist on being that way to cause trouble for everyone else. Or I could boil my feet with rice.
