Sir: And what shall we do for our own Solzhenitsyn,

Enoch? He also speaks for the best in his country and will not take part in the lie. Shall we doom him to the self-exile of an honest Englishman's disgust?

If so, as the much-mustachioed Mr rom Jackson, though not speaking of Enoch, put it in a splendid,,tieart-felt sentence, "England will btajdaogood country to emigrate from."

So Soldier-nitsyn on, Enoch. Stand, not partaking of the lie, but for the truth of your fellow-countrymen, who mostly, both normally Labour and normally Tory voters, stand with you. Stand as Independent: most of us are, still.

If you have to our abiding regret missed this general election, stand for the first by-election. You will win it hands down: even in Barnsley, and most-honest Barnsley folk will protest at the "even."

Livy said it: El gratiae actae. . . (mod de re publica non desperasset.

The people thanked him, for not having lost faith in his country.
