Not uncommon. In Italy many (Iβd say most but I donβt have actual numbers) luxury cars were RHD. Lancia especially. It started as a chauffeur thing, but became a fashion thing. In Japan, lhd is popular on luxury imports for exactly the same reason.

Precisely. I hope he comes to Beaconsfield, Altrincham, Harrogate, Bruton, Etc etc and starts complaining about a lack of integration. Otherwise people might start thinking heβs just a racist dog-whistler

What Jenrick says about wanting integrated, mixed communities would be true if he spent a month visiting Beaconsfield, Altrincham, Carmarthen, Inverness and Lavenham and complained that βall he sees are white faces and that this is wrong.β But he wonβt, so it isnβt.

I hated the naff cheesy title of his BBC programme (Sideways - wince) so much that I refused to listen to it. The odd occasions Iβve heard him speak have reinforced my belief that heβs a self-absorbed windbag who thinks heβs ten times cleverer than he really is.
