There's a bit of a gap between being socialist and being a callous, money-grubbing, sexually perverted tory.

ER...No. There ARE a lot of socialists. The 'socialists' are plural. Give me a call when you get to the back of the class laddie!

The socialists are plural, but the lot is singular, and you modified the subject by using it.
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends. Shed Petition[^]
There ARE a LOT of Reasons why I am correct. LOT, in this context, is a collective noun, therefore plural. One could say, for example, "There IS a LOT of Socialism in the Lounge", and that would be correct. But when we are talking about the individuals, then one should say "There ARE a LOT of socialists in the lounge". It is not a difficult concept, surely? Or would you say "There IS many birds in the sky?" Bugger me! I forgot about the A! It makes it a prepositional modifier. Of course I should have said there ARE LOTS. Apologies!
