Disillusioned English "Nazis"

It appears that all the Gillian Duffys are fed up with Brown.
She is the voter who dared to raise the issues no politicians wanted to discuss - and derailed Gordon Brown's election campaign in the process.

Gillian Duffy, a pensioner from Rochdale, was called a "bigot" by Gordon Brown after she questioned him over immigration and the economy.

But what would have happened if the Prime Minister had met Gillian Duffy from Dundee, or Gillian Duffy from Neath or Sheffield, or Richmond?

The Sunday Telegraph contacted Mrs Duffy's namesakes around the country in a unique test of voter opinion.

We found a group which had largely voted Labour in 2005 who were now mostly undecided ahead of Thursday's election.

They are concerned about education, pensions, care for the elderly, immigration and health.

But they are also, on the whole, disillusioned with the political process.
Can charges of racism and Nazism and Apartheidism be far behind?
