Just what does the Conservative Party in general and David
Cameron, in particular, stand for? The
news that a Heathrow decision will be postponed, yet again, was entirely
predictable. Equally predictable, that
he waited, until the time was right to secure popular endorsement,
before taking action to assist a NATO ally who had been violated by the same
Islamic terrorism we profess to be fighting a few miles away, was
spineless. On the other hand, we were
unprepared for the about turns on welfare reform and balancing the books announced
in the budget. The awful Nicky Morgan
has now put the brake on education reform and nobody, it appears, dare face the
truth on NHS funding. The commitment to
2% on defence spending is a shameful accounting trick. Goodness knows what we are supposed to be "negotiating"
over EU membership (but it doesn't seem to be much of substance). But one thing remains constant, our
commitment to 0.7% of GDP on overseas aid!
