Touch of Stockholm Syndrome, Nick? "Our captors aren't so bad! Those other 
people over there are much worse!" 

Or is the the British stiff upper lip - "It's only a flesh wound!"

Or has it reached the point of, "We've always been at war with Oceana, and 
the chocolate ration has been increased!"

I remember when the British VAT was introduced, at 8% by the way, that it 
was going to reduce the income tax.How's that going? I guess what they 
didn't explain was that the British VAT was going to reduce the income tax 
for the* rest of Europe*.
