Poor old David....leader of an unelectable, intractable rump of extreme Thatchistas, bent on returning us to 1950's values, and the wrong 1950's values at that. (You have to admire the 'No Poofters, No Foriegners, and No to Europe' tendancies - if only for intransigence in the face of direct evidence. As is, when the world economy staggers we're better off in the European marketplace.)

David tried to be Disraeli. The rump of his party actually want Oswald Moseley. They must never be allowed to have power. Once they're all dead, then perhaps the Tory Party will rise like a phoenix from the ashes, but, until then.....
