Stay at Home Tory Voters

I see I am not the only one who thinks Cameron is loosing the core vote

Sir - I have voted Conservative at every possible opportunity. I did so because I believe in its inherent principles. I believe in the market and I believe in low taxation. It is on these principles that I will vote (or not vote) at the next election.

Mr Cameron has had a superb start to his leadership. But it has been too one-sided for some. While the party needs to win over an army of voters in the centre, if he does so at the expense of a small group on the ideological Right, it will have all been in vain.

The Conservative Party can strike a balance. But the core vote isn’t guaranteed. If the next four years are anything like the past four months, many of us will be sorely tempted to stay at home and remind the party how much it needs us, albeit too late.
