    If this were a sane world, rather than the one we inhabit, 'Quincy Institute' and 'Responsible Statecraft' would be the same black mark on a CV that 'American Renaissance' and 'New Century Foundation' currently are.

    One memory of Sir David that just comes to mind. I saw him canvassing a nearby road and a resident, completely unprompted, pointed to him and said to me, 'Whatever you think, that man is a good constituency MP'. Amess beamed.
