The British Tea Party finds its leader?

I just had an article published on Comment Is Free on the prospects for a British Tea Party movement. The article was inspired by a bizarre comment piece by someone called Professor Miles Robbins. It's well worth reading and marvelling at its mind-boggling ludiscrousness. I have uploaded a scan of it:

Enjoy!

Came over from your CIF article to have a read of the pdf. Great piece by-the-way, thank you :-)

It certainly is mind-boggling! And definitely an argument for having some kind of tea party movement for those who believe this stuff. As it is, it goes largely unchallenged even though the 'facts' can be unpicked relatively easily.
