The Tories are afraid, very afraid…
Matthew Parris’s column in the Times shows just how afraid the Tories are. His party threw the kitchen sink at the campaign(not an Ikea sink either); they got the Press baying like pack hounds; they spent months at relentless, personal vilification of Gordon Brown; they peddled the bromide of a ‘Big Society’ as an elixir of a better life; they conjured mirages of savings; they promised everyone everything plus economic rigour. Snake Oil. If you can’t fool enough people at least some of the time, you’re toast. Most people emphatically did not, do not, and never will want the Conservative Party in sole charge of the country again.
