In today's Mirror newspaper there's a double page spread on what are
considered to be the Icons of England and among the many featured which
include old style red telephone boxes, fish and Chips, Spitfire Planes,
Cricket, Real Ale, Tea, Punch and Judy and Alice in Wonderland etc there is
of course the Mini, the real Mini that is 1959 - 2000!  Find out more here:

Better get voting.

14% feel that the Mini is NOT an icon!!!

85% OK.

Perhaps a few more will tip the balance?

Yes the 14% who felt that the Mini is not a British icon should be publicly
flogged!

Oddly, 86% DO feel that public flogging is a British icon.
