Enjoyed the piece. You should continue on this line. Obviously it's anachronistic, but there is perhaps something to be said for the idea that what passes for populism in Britain now (re Matt Goodwin "Values, Voice, and Virtue" and "National Populism") taps into a deeper tradition of radical toryism/jabobitism. Especially if one sees in the overbearing metropolitan establishment and professional-managerial class a new iteration of whig ascendency. Maybe this is just a game for the history needs. Maybe not.

Funny. Im just reading a book with this exact picture on the cover (The Jacobites, Szechi).
