But we did run an EU opinion poll over the last month, planning to reveal its results today. Sure, it's got a margin of error. But it's the most accurate opinion poll conducted in a small religions community in mid Bedfordshire that we're aware of.

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
Tch! Excuses, excuses! ;-)
DeleteDo you think the Reichswehr will let a little quibble like that stand in its way? Pah!
DeleteGove is obviously some obscure tense formation of the verb "give", possibly the pluperfect subjunctive passive.
