Conversation is but carving!
Give no more to every guest
Than he's able to digest.
Give him always of the prime,
And but little at a time.
Carve to all but just enough,
Let them neither starve nor stuff,
And that you may have your due,
Let your neighbor carve for you.

 
Jonathan Swift

When John Stuart Mill called the Tories "the Stupid Party," he was not entirely wrong.

Harriet Harman
