Yesterday’s competition to win a copy of the book of the film Taking Liberties asked you to explain the Tory policy on grammar schools in 50 words or less. Highly liked “FLIP FLOP FLAP” by “anonymous”. Bit hard to award a prize to anonymous but if they email in Guido will have to trust ’em.

For today’s competition, Guido will send a copy of the book to the author of the best (imagined) proposal of marriage made by Gordon Brown to Sarah. The setting and words used to win her over if you please, in the comments. Please can we go for wit above cruelty. Try to capture the romance of it all…
