Thank you, Fanusi Khiyal. I just wanted to have clear in my mind, the interpretation you were placing upon that rather tawdry piece of journalism. Personally, I didn't infer the ideas you did. Let's try to be careful here. "Rode into parliment on a wave of anti-immigrant sentiment" is perhaps an example of hackneyed, lazy writing but it doesn't neccesarily imply (let alone mean) that Ayan Hirsi Ali was cynically taking advantage of that "wave".
