We keep reading in the Westminster-centric press about the “resurgent” Tory party but what’s really going on? Like lots of you I’ve been riveted by the conservativehome website and what appears to be meltdown in the conservative associations out there in the sticks. OK only four associations have come seriously unstuck, but is this the tip of the iceberg?
I always thought Dave was going to run into trouble with his grassroots. Think about that solid 30% of the electorate who stuck with the Tories through all the wilderness years. They really hate Europe. They truly believe in low taxes, small government and the welfare state as a simple safety net for the indigent. They think being green means support for foxhunters because they “look after the countryside” (you bet they do, how else are there still going to be foxes to hunt?).
