OT, I'm pleased for you that you are impressed by both the thread and Rory Stewart's article, but forgive me if I cannot share your enthusiasm. The first is still on its first page which may well be its last. The second is the most self satisfied piece of undergrad thesis style (useful for a dodgy dossier?). Personally I would not find it amiss in the very publication that it goes out of its way to deride:
suggestive enough of crude moral imperatives to attract the Daily Mail
If Stewart has decided that he talks (as a TV Presenter) better than he writes, then good call, don't give up the day job, and leave writing to...well the likes of T.E.Lawrence!
