1998! The Good Friday Agreement gives Tories something new to undermine, Former Conservative Cabinet Minister Enoch Powell makes his greatest contribution to Britain by dying, and Andrew Wakefield's fraudulent paper puts him in the running with Thomas Midgley Jr. for single individual who did the most to undermine public health.

The Russell was Xtian tosh, and the Baxter was much worse. I would not be surprised if I read the worst two of that set.

The Family Tree is the only one of those I read, and it was engaging.
