289. The Tory action this weekend is in Windsor – Telegraph Blogs

The blogs editor doesn’t much like it when I use this space to plug my engagements, so I’ll keep this brief. If you’re free on Saturday, come to what promises to be a superb political conference in Windsor. Speakers include Roger Scruton, Tim Montgomerie, Toby Young, Matt Elliot, Syed Kamall and me.Windsor is an outstanding example of what Conservatives can achieve unencumbered by coalition. Its local authority is, by any measure, one of the most innovative and successful in England: the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead has improved services while cutting taxes, exactly as Centre-Right administrations should. Many of the great Conservative policies of past years, from allowing tenants to buy their homes to bringing in entrepreneurs to turn around failing schools, were pioneered by Tory councillors.

290. Hannan: Only a Tory-UKIP Pact Can Stop Labour

BIRMINGHAM, United Kingdom -- Conservative Party MEP Daniel Hannan has taken to the Daily Mail today to insist that an electoral pact between UKIP and the Tories is the only way to stop the Labour Party taking control of the British government at the general election next year.On the second day of Conservative Party Conference, Hannan, who is not in attendance this year, has written in the Mail: "Many Conservatives responded with irrational rage to the decisions of Douglas Carswell and Mark Reckless to join Ukip, calling them egoists, liars and worse."

291. Robert Halfon MP: Yes, Labour messed up migration. But there's nothing unConservative in critising TESCO

So much for Labour and the recasting of immigration policy. Chris Bryant’s interview on Radio 4 Today was a car-crash, not just because mistakes were made in the pre-release (Kent instead described as the place where Tesco closed a Distribution Centre, rather than Harlow, Essex, being a prime example), but because most fair-minded people know why we are in this mess in the first place.The last Labour Government allowed de facto uncontrolled immigration, and grossly underestimated the amount of migrants who would come here - especially those from Eastern Europe. They also signed all the EU Directives that allowed big companies to hire agency workers on the cheap - in technical parlance, known as ‘The Swedish Derogation’.But behind the political posturing, there is a more serious point: the problem of big corporate juggernauts, and the way they treat their workers.

292. These Senators Could Be in Ethics Trouble Over the IRS Scandal | TheBlaze.com

The smoking gun in the IRS targeting scandal could be found in the Senate, one advocacy group says, pointing out a correspondence it believes pressured the tax agency to impose extra scrutiny on conservative groups as part of a Democratic election strategy in 2010 and 2012.The Center for Competitive Politics, which opposes campaign finance restrictions and other limits on political speech, filed a complaint with the Senate Select Committee on Ethics against nine Democratic senators, most notably Assistant Majority Leader Dick Durbin of Illinois and Carl Levin of Michigan, for repeated lobbying of the IRS to probe conservative groups.It also specifically cites Charles Schumer of New York, who was the lead author of letters to the IRS signed by Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire; Tom Udall of New Mexico; Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island; Al Franken of Minnesota; Michael Bennet of Colorado; and Jeff Merkley of Oregon.

294. 'Parliament makes decisions, not the people' - anger as Peers say public cannot be trusted on EU vote

Peers have been accused of showing “contempt” for British voters over the proposed EU referendum, saying the public cannot be trusted to make the right decision.Dozens of members of the House of Lords today attacked Conservative plans to set in law an in/out vote on Britain’s membership of the European Union by 2017.There are growing fears the bill will be killed at committee stage by Labour and Liberal Democrat peers, despite it sailing through the Commons and receiving an unopposed second reading in the Lords.Lord Mandelson, the former EU Commissioner, said any vote would be a “lottery” in which the electorate would be swayed by irrelevant issues.

295. Cain Tells Uninformed Voters To Stay Home: 'Stupid People Ruining America!' | The Daily Caller

Former Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain lambasted low-information voters who still participate in elections, urging them to stay home and declaring that “stupid people are ruining America!”Cain spoke at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s “Road to Majority” conference in Washington, D.C. Friday, insisting that the conservative audience “stay informed” in order to push back against liberalism’s broad dominance in government and media.“The mainstream media is complicit in the cover-up and in the denial and in the overlooking of information for the American people,” the former Godfather’s Pizza CEO explained. “Most people don’t even know we are in as bad a condition as we are in.”

299. Greek government legitimacy | John Redwood's Diary

The “wise heads” of the EU establishment think the Greek New Democracy (Conservative light) party should join forces with Pasok (Socialist light) party yet again in coalition and carry on with business as usual. These parties were rejected by two thirds of the Greek electors. What part of “No” does the EU establishment not understand? Once again they do not get this democracy idea. The two parties themselves decided not to undertake this task, but more negotiations lie ahead.Yesterday morning I listened to a Greek commentator saying the people had elected a Parliament of clowns and worse. He objected fiercely to the people not knuckling down and voting for candidates who were prepared to tell them that the European dream meant the continuing reality of austerity in the form of ever higher taxes and further attempted reductions in state spending. He should understand that the people voted as they did because they think the Euro dream has become a nightmare, and they want change.

300. Where's the Coalition's forward gear? The Tory Diary

One of Tory HQ's favourite attacks on Labour is to accuse their leaders of dithering and weakness. It produced a dossier on Ed Miliband's first 100 days making this very allegation. It was how Cameron described Gordon Brown on the day that Mr Grumpy scrapped plans for an autumn 2007 honeymoon election.Leaders are as well known for their personal qualities as the content of their policies. With Thatcher it was strength. Blair was about modernity. I'd nominate civility as Obama's defining quality - at least at the beginning. Number 10 plans to present Cameron as "strong" and "fair" in the next election campaign and it must therefore be alert to the possibility that a weakness narrative starts attaching itself to the Coalition and indirectly to Cameron himself. The Sun makes the charge this morning in its second 'leader', entitled "Stop dithering":

304. Jesse Norman: Milton Friedman, Adam Smith and... Tim Worstall Conservative Home Columnists

Tim Worstall is a good man, despite a somewhat Antipodean approach to public debate. He has taken me to task with his usual shyness and charm for an article I wrote last week in the Telegraph about the duties of directors and the idea of stewardship. In his words, “With Jesse Norman as a Tory MP why bother having a Labour Party?”Tim’s standard operating procedure is (a) read something he doesn’t like, (b) reach for his shotgun, and (c) blow the end of his own foot off. Here’s a previous example, in relation to something I didn’t say last year about the House of Lords. Those of a tender disposition may wish to look elsewhere.
