The Thorpe Affair – What if?

I am one of those with a fascination for history, who sometimes indulge in the practice of 'What if?'. Some of you may know what I mean; but, if not, here are a few examples. Let's start with 1066. What if King Harald had actually defeated Duke William of Normandy at the battle of Hastings? Scroll forward some eight hundred years and ask yourself what if President Abraham Lincoln had not attended Ford's Theatre on that fateful night in April 1865? What if Archduke Franz Ferdinand's driver hadn't taken a detour in Sarajevo in June 1914 or what if Adolf Hitler hadn't shortened his speech at the Bürgerbräukeller in Munich in November 1939 and left early? And finally, more recently and perhaps nearer to home, what if Nick Clegg hadn't accepted David Cameron's 'generous offer' in May 2010? I'm sure you get the idea.
