As most of you are aware who have been brave or daft enough to read my blog, I am a Conservative. This has been somewhat difficult for the past 10 years or so.
Having sat and watched Blair and latterly bully boy Brown hock this country into amazingly large debt, while at the same time soaking the populace for tax monies, it has been even harder still.
One of the saddest things about the last 10 years has been the way that nearly every "policy" (I use the term exceptionally loosely) has been based on and devised for the center of London and the chattering classes that Blair most certainly surrounded himself with.
My warning to the Tories? Take heed that you are not going down the same route. We have a lot to do. Firstly, getting the country onto a stable financial footing, as it was when the present spendthrifts took office, while at the same time giving the people of this country the ability to take back control of their lives, and their own personal finances, based on the needs of the country as a whole.
Not all is rosey in the blue corner, but it is much rosier than the dark red gloom in the other one.
