How about solving the actual problem, Cameron?

Tim Montgomerie is trying to resurrect the Conservative Party and he offers:
"We are still, however, seen as too close to the wealthy and big business."
Lobbying's the culprit. Big business picks the candidates and writes the legislation, enmeshing the little guy in red tape and crippling expenses.

Then we find these corporations have been granted all kinds of tax exemptions while they wriggle out of their obligations, put up prices and cause catastrophes.

And yet, the guilty are never charged. Instead, they are rewarded.

The little guy, on the other hand, might find himself in jail for protesting.

Where is the justice in Britain today?

Are the chattering classes so far removed from the big picture that they can't see the stark, tormented scene they have overlaid on this once green and pleasant land?

Rather than finding a new shiny spin vehicle, why doesn't the Conservative Party find a way of solving the actual problem: preventing big business from subverting democracy?

Tim Nice-But-Dim just doesn't get it, Fausty, he still seems to think that the Tory leadership is in some way different to ZaNuLieBore and the Illiberal Undemocrats - it would be funny if it wasn't so f*****g annoying and downright dangerous for the British people!

I fear that Tim is faithful, Spidey - an ingredient necessary to sustain the two-party dictatorship.

If Italy blowing up dishes a death blow to the Evil Empire, bring it on! Italy needs to sort itself out, anyway.
