Dead Tories and New Labour Identity Fraud

John Redwood on TV yesterday had all the vitality of a used tea bag. Most Tories look like undertakers and the corpse is the Party. They lack passion. There is no Maggie. The Party lost its soul in 1990(Novemeber). In the Tories we have seen the protracted twitchings of a corpse -the longest death bed scene in political history and now 'something of the night' is master of ceremonies.

How appropriate that we had some ritualistic shroud waving this week as they fought over another corpse -the NHS. Ugly scenes at the bedside. Should we allow the NHS to slip away -a sort of politically assisted suicide? Pull the plug. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear...

The only hope as I said before is a Bush like revival, a vision,passion, belief, fervour all the things the present tories just don't have.

Into the vaccum we have the Blair Switch Project - New Labour - the first recorded case of political transvestism. They didn't just steal a few items -it was wholesale larceny.

Think it was the great Rush Limbaugh who once said: 'today the only way liberals can get elected is by pretending to be conservatives.......'
