Today David Davis launched his website www.daviddavisforfreedom.com to help highlight the issues he will be campaigning on and the issues which he stands firm to. Many Members of Parliament would not have dared take the chance of stepping down from their seat to force a by-election, nevermind quit a senior post in the next Conservative [...]

Today’s Independent will see a poll from ComRes which has the Conservative Party 14 points ahead of the Labour Government. This is a bad poll for the government, not just because it is only four days before Londoners go to the Polls to decide whether RedKen gets to keep his job or whether they plump [...]

The sure sign of trouble for any politician is when he (or she) starts hiding from the general public. The Guardian have an interesting piece on DC and Gordon getting on the same train bound for the Principality of Wales.

Gossip is something I don’t normally like to (admit) taking part in, but I can’t resist… The prospect of Gordon “Mr Bean” Brown losing power is just too sweet!
Over the next week we have not only got the vote on Gordon’s abolition of the 10p tax band, the London Mayoral (and lest we forget [...]

Alright, so I haven’t blogged anything for a while…. a long while if I’m fair and even then it wasn’t exactly in line with what it says on the banner of the site. For this I apologise, I have frankly been far too busy, but I have set aside a few minutes now to get [...]
