More EUplastic bovine extretia from Cameron

More BS from Cameron. All words and no substance, as usual.

Some of the Conservative Party faithful still believe that Cameron's stance is down to "The Law of Unintended Consequences Coalition Party ..."

Unintended?

Well before the 2010 general elections, it was clear that Cameron's stance on the EU was inadequate and unrepresentative of the majority in the Conservative party.

It was clear that he did not espouse traditional conservative values and consequently, his poll ratings never reached beyond levels which would be certain to require some sort of coalition. He must surely have known that there would be a very good chance of a hung parliament and hence, a coalition with the LibDems.

He had a chance to change that, and had ample issues on which to do so. He was up against the worst PM in living memory - a man roundly despised by the populace, in the personage of McDoom.

But Cameron chose not to.

Most people were curious as to why Cameron agreed to elevate Clegg by his decision to allow the EUzealot a place in the first ever series of televised GE debates.

It is now absolutely plain as to why he did that.

Given the Merkozy manoeuvrings of the past week or two and the upcoming bid to throw even more taxpayers' money at political parties (to 'harmonise' with Germany), I'm beginning to wonder if the decision to include Clegg in the televised debates emanated from the EU.

Even now, the disheartened, disillusioned, disenfranchised Tory faithful hope that Cameron is "listening". 

He knows how we all feel, make no mistake. He has skips full of our money to enable him to access any kind of data he likes - particularly given his obsession with image.

It's no good appealing to those whose fingers are on the levers of power to divest themselves of some of it.

That's like a kidnappee appealing to his captors to let him go.

If Conservatives want power back from this EU-devotee, they're going to have to devise a way of taking that power back.

Do EUrealists (as opposed to the EUplastics) have a plan to do so, yet? If not, they need to formulate one now.

To achieve this, they'll have to be disciplined and resolute and refuse to succumb to infighting amongst themselves. They'll need to agree a core strategy and carry it out.

As an ex-Conservative, I would be delighted if the Conservative Party proper could re-assert itself - hence negating the need for UKIP. Right now, it appears that there is NO chance of that happening.

Unless the CP gets its act together - and quickly, it is headed for its own Armageddon at future elections.

And it will have only itself to blame.
