Steady on, old chap! It is news to me the you consider yourself a moderate. I must have been under a misapprehension, or maybe I misremembered, but did you not tell us on these very forums that you voted for that dangerous Marxist friend of terrorists, that nice Mr Corbyn, at the last election?

Now you can call that a moderate vote if you like, but to most of us, this is way left of centre. Have you now repented, perhaps?

I wasn't calling you names, just referring to the lefty references you had linked to in your post.

The DUP arrangement is a perfectly sensible decision, given that the Conservatives don't have a majority. It has enabled them to get legislation through (apart from Brexit, that is).

If Labour were in the same position, no doubt they would do a deal with the SNP. That's how politics works, like it or not.
