Oh come on, every defectee “says” that. Some of us do know the copy+paste quotes for the local press, you know =P
Wow! What a big catch!
Many Tories could follow, as the Liberal Democrats are looking to join with Labour on the Basis that the Constitution will be changed to allow some Proportional Representation, so putting them in greater power than they are now.
Anyway Dave Camerons followers are liberal conservatives. I reckon that the defection is the forerunner of an espionage plot.
Really glad to have Dave on our team, particularly as I’ve known him for a very long time and know him to be an excellent local politician.
