Aye, it applies to a lot of the forelock-tuggers up here, where forelocks tend to be very long….
It’s a strange thing, and quite a British one. People vote for all kinds of daft reasons, but maybe this has its roots in class and a way of thinking which says ‘I identify as middle-class so I should vote Tory’ or ‘The Tories were born to rule, unlike that Labour Party hoi polloi, which are no better than me’ or something similar, even though it means they’ll make themselves worse off.
