Thanks shooty, but I am still none the wiser as to why the novel 1984 by Orwell has anything to do with "Lacking consistency"

bibblebub

perhaps the setter has used 1984 as an instance of an even number just to cause such confusion

shooty

Hi 0801, I don't purchase the Telegraph, but from other postings on here over the months, I was under the assumption that the setter likes to use Novels, literature and such in His/Her clue references. My thoughts was that a 'Totalitarian Government' would be a consistent Ruling of power (unwavering dictatorial control) IE, direct even control(not black or white policies).
I am obviously looking to hard into the clue and apologies for any misunderstanding that I may have caused (just my thoughts). : )

Bibblrbubs is right.
