I was talking to two people who will be voting. They are both at Uni and both in their mid-20s. Both very interested in politics. May even be active young socialists. It seemed that way. In the course of conversation happened to mention that I once met Salman Rushdie. I noticed their blank looks. I said: You've heard of him of course? Answer: No. Then I said: But maybe you've heard of a book called "Satanic Verses"? Once again. No. But you know what a fatwa is? Silence.
