The Dave Test
I used to have an informal test for absurd right-wing fogeyishness. If my interlocutor insisted on calling me Finkelshhhtein, they passed the test, and could duly be regarded as right-wing fogeys.
This however restricts those who could be tested to people whom I knew. So now I have replaced it with my all new Dave test.
Columnists who, when attacking David Cameron, attempt to belittle him by calling him Dave pass the test.
Congratulations to my good friend Stephen Pollard who, after many years of trying, has finally qualified.
