I am sorry but I don’t like Mr Blair, I never did, but I thought once we had lost him as a prime minister well I wouldn’t have to read about him in the newspaper every day…don’t read it you say , I honestly try not too but well …. you know how it is!
I think I used to have socialist leanings but since Blair and then Brown ….(And the new lot lining up to be the party leader don’t imspire me either!) Well I feel I can be forgiven for wanting a Conservative governemnt! (Apologies to my Mother and grandfather)
Interestingly enought twice in the last 24 hours have I heard; once from a dear friend and once on radio 5, labour people saying I never thought I would support what a consevative government government is propsing…. So maybe the tide is turning or maybe the liberals are mellowing conservative views…..we will have to wait and see!

P.S. last week I found a book on the history of the Stroud Valley and there was a picture of my dad, looking very young and handsome, carrying a young conservatives banner!
