I thought Alistair Darling said something about this in the budget, which would make California second to Britain.  However, I may be wrong - it's so hard to stay awake when Alistair Darling is speaking and I may have been dreaming.
There is no opinion, however absurd, which men will not readily embrace as soon as they can be brought to the conviction that it is readily adopted.
