non partisan comment on the European Union and Westminster politics

 

IDS was Not That Bad!

This from a blog I read occasionally, I very much agree with the sentiments in fact I twice wrote to the previous Tory leader to make the point that the Tories had to find a way of combating a generally left wing media before they would start to make headway. I would however take issue with the comment “the Conservatives are making no more headway now than they were under Hague or Duncan Smith” Under Ian Duncan Smith the Tories advanced from about 22 points behind in the polls to level pegging in just under 18 months, everyone keeps telling us that IDS was a waste of time, that has grown to become an urban myth, but myth it is.

Candid Cameron

By A McC What a complete and utter ass we have as leader of the once great Conservatives. Having taken the party closer to the ideological bosom of Heath than at any time since 1974, Cameron is now attacking those who act as markers for people with true Conservative principles. According to Fauntleroy, the UK Independence Party comprises a bunch of ‘loonies’ and ‘closet racists’; an analysis obviously not shared by many within his own party. In the eyes of ‘Call me Dave’, a movement seeking to return the UK to a situation where it is not totally beholden to the policies formulated by foreign states is essentially mentally unstable; whilst anyone who doesn’t want this country saturated with half of the globe’s human traffic, who make whoopee thanks to the EU’s ludicrous immigration, asylum and citizenship laws is a ‘closet racist’. And all from the mouth of a man who is basically a closet.

We were told by the Lefty media that the Conservatives would have to occupy the centre-ground (i.e. become Labour with caviar) in order to reap electoral dividends. After five months of being inundated with uber-Liberal buffoonery by he of the silver spoon, the Conservatives are making no more headway now than they were under Hague or Duncan Smith. The issue is not abandonment of principle. The issue is confronting and defeating a British media empire overwhelmingly dominated by children of the Left - the same media who have done more to sully the cause of true Conservatism by their presentations to the British public than any one leader. Cameron should be keen on making his party a ‘catch-all’ movement incorporating the significant numbers who agree with the policies of the UKIP, not some blue-tinged essentially Labour-lite pinko with no backbone whatsoever.
