Permanent Opposition

“I want and I will lead a Conservative party that when the government does the right thing, we will work with them, and when they do the wrong thing we will call them to account and criticise them.”David Cameron – 6 December 2005.

Obviously the man thinks that the Tories role is to be the Opposition party; there’s no suggestion here that he expects them to be the Government.

Let's hope they long remain in opposition. There is something about Cameron that I do not like, apart from the obvious fact he's a Tory ! It's all about surface and presentation, sounding more caring and compassionate, when in reality what he proposes is exactly the same kind of slash and burn of the public sector advocated by his predecessors. I hope that next to Gordon Brown, Cameron will appear insubstantial and lightweight.
