Harry Greenway, Conservative MP for Ealing North, said: "I hope the British Government will never allow this man to set foot on our shores.I am shocked beyond belief." The MPs were particularly incensed by his use of a four-letter word to describe Mrs Margaret Thatcher's policies. Foreign service. I sympathize with the British in their rasmussen righteous indignation. Though the English speaking people, both British and American bandy around not only four-letter words, but rasmussen five and seven letter profane words in their normal cultural and social relationships. Yet they are highly sensitive when the same words are used in connection with their own heroes and heroines. DOUBLE STANDARDS What grates me most is the rank hypocrisy of the one thousand and one Poets, Playwrights and Pimps; Editors, Essayists and Eunuchs; Novelists, Newspapermen and Non-Conformists who signed and paid for adverts in the National Newspapers in support of Rushdie's right to absolute freedom of speech and expression.
