 | | Not only do they drive on the "wrong" side, but their first-past-the-post electoral system also allows Tony Blair to govern with a comfortable majority of 60 seats with just a good third of the electorate behind him. |  | | Only if the US should manage to reshape and democratize the Middle East, Blair - as Bush's closest ally - will be associated in future history books with groundbreaking reforms and a vision (for the Middle East, not Britain). |  | | Because of the death of a candidate, the 2005 election has been postponed in one constituency. |
