@TheKenfig Do you know that Christianity is correct? The world around us reveals that G-d DOES exist, and the historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth and there is overwhelming evidence that Jesus Christ really did physically rise from the dead. Jesus is coming again and the signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are coming to pass.
The MPs and the ministers of Conservative Party tend to use "absolute loyalty" "absolute support" a lot. They are in politics. It is impossible to have all MPs and ministers having the same view, and any ultimately difference leads to actions contrary to the ones set by the leader. Such expressions are used only because a word like "obedience" is a bit too much.
@SkullOfYorick no... he was truly a terrible leader. he may have found his place in reforming benefits.... but as a leader of the tories he was, thankfully, terrible.
Had Ken Clarke won the leadership in 2001, he would have opposed the Iraq War in 2003. Without Conservative support, Tony Blair would have lost the Commons vote on the Iraq War and be forced to resign. Gordon Brown would have won the resulting Labour leadership election and would have become PM four years earlier than he did.
Who know what the result of the 2005 General election would have looked like had it been Brown against Clarke, but at least British troops wouldn't have gone into Iraq.
Many Conservative MPs would have rebelled, but I think loyalty to the leader (and the idea of defeating Tony Blair) would have meant the Commons would have voted against the war.
IDS doesn't have the 'it' factor. Nevertheless he is a good and passionate man. Mellor was so rude in this video. Why speak in such crude ways that is personal. He is hardly to speak himself really. Hi from Botswana, Africa!
IDS didn't exactly do the Tories much good, but then again as long as the Tories have complete upper class arsewipes like the one on 1.37 then they will always struggle to win a lot of support.
Patton, Portillo, and Cameron on the soft -left of the Tory party, all tried to out-compete with New Labour on social spending promises in the heyday of big-spending, big-consumerist, big credit,
until the crunch came.
Now the bust has inevitably come, maybe we will see some real leadership, to shake the British people out of their infamous complacency.
can you really say there is anyone in the tories now prepared to make tough choices? it seems pretty likely cameron will change his mind about these cuts once their effect is felt by the public. a good thing to say now, but a thing he'll regret once he's in office.

Gordon Brown is the worst leader since Harold Wilson- Give Ian a break - he's done more foor the poor scince loosing his job as leader than any other MP.
No, Clarke would have done better but he wouldn't have been able to take his party with him. Like Kinnock he would ahve been dragged down by the fringes of his party.
I thought IDS got the position at the wrong time. labour was in the ascendancy after tory rule and IDS or anyone they chose would have lost. for me hague (despite his witticism) and michael howard were far worst as centrist party leaders.
