Many of her previous policies were guided around her religion. I wonder what next? Holy water in the tiolets [sic]? No trains on Sundays?

Oh dear... I'm sure he'll manage to screw it up. And I do hope he keeps religion out of politics.

And what does she know about trains? Probably bugger all - she might find it educational to visit this forum.
