If you didn't "know" this person was SWP, and were handed the above comment
and asked "what party is this person from", the tone of the note alone
brings
to the minds eye a cohort of indoctrinated drones headed by a jesticulating
"Comrade" determinedly not letting anyone else get an opinion in edgewise,
and accusing all who do manage to and are slightly "critical" of being
"patronising
and insulting".

No offense intended to ex-SWP listers, but, Laura, these remarks are not
meant to be at all covert.
