The Tories - the party of experience

I was thinking about the fact that my party's 328,000 members have an average age of 65. Many people have ridiculed us for this but in fact I think it is a great source of strength in that it makes us much more experienced. Look at it this way, only 0.56% of people in this country are members of our party. But of the 2.2 billion years for which people in this country have been living (in total), our party members represent 0.97%. That's almost certainly a lot more than the Labour Party.
