La Westwood voting Tory?

Who'd have thought it. On yesterday's Daily Politics, Dame Vivienne Westwood announced that she would be voting Tory at the next election. It's hard to think of the doyenne of punk voting for the party that has stood for all things establishment for so long.

For Dame Westwood the issue of civil rights and liberties has led her to consider voting for the party which she must have opposed for so long. She says that she has never seen a more autocratic Government than what we have now. I agree with her (and I can't abide ID cards too - but more of that later).

Apparently Dame Vivienne will also be attending a Tory Christmas dinner too, which would seem to be taking 'voting Tory' to the next level.

Has the world turned upside down?

Squiffy.
