Chris Applegate posts a fantastic rant about Micheal Howard. I can't help but agree with everything he writes. I was amazed that the Tory Party elected him as leader, since I considered his credibility completely destroyed by the famous Paxman interview. The fact that they did elect him confirms that the rest of the Tory party remain completely backwards looking and out of touch.
On a related note, I caught Liam Fox on the radio tonight, trying to claim that the Rover business going into administration, with the potential loss of 30,000 (sic) manufacturing jobs, proved the current government wasn't delivering economic stability.
So exactly what kind of economic stability were the Tories delivering during the destruction of British manufacturing under their 18 years ?
