337. Shapps warns councils "may well not be rewarded" for Council Tax rises | Local Government

A warning from Housing Minister Grant Shapps on the Radio 4 Today programme to councils turning down the offer of funding for a Council Tax freeze this year because they thought it would make it easier for them to dodge a referendum next year.

338. Exam board insists A-level Politics students give left-wing answers Left Watch

The left wing leanings of parts of the educational establishment have long been obvious - and plenty more have been drawn out by the hysterical opposition to Michael Gove's Free School reforms. The nature of the politics curriculum itself hasn't yet been explored, though. Today, the Telegraph features a must-read piece by 18-year-old A-level...

340. How should Conservatives deal with UKIP?

Members of the new ConservativeHome Jury offer their thoughts. These thoughts were first submitted a week ago and appeared in the ConservativeHome Party Conference newspaper. ANGIE BRAY MP: We need a robust response on prisoner votes and, more topically, the rights of trade unions as they persuade the European Court of Human Rights to re-examine issues like rights to secondary picketing. We need action, not just words, on repatriating a swathe of regulatory powers.LOUISE MENSCH: Not an in-out referendum - the Europhile's dream. Proposed by ex Euro MEP, this question almost demands a 'Yes' vote. We should have a referendum on new terms of membership - a semi-detached relationship. Cameron and Osborne should define the terms. Then the referendum should offer three choices. (Can you see UKIP's fox cowering in the corner? We're about to shoot it.) 1. Leave the EU altogether. 2. Demand new membership terms (as listed) and leave if we don't get them. 3. Remain as we are. Can anybody doubt a massive victory for point two?

343. Tory MPs round on David Cameron and George Osborne - Telegraph

Conservative MPs have warned David Cameron he must make major changes in the way he runs his Government and his party to reconnect with voters and retain public confidence.George Osborne, the Chancellor and close ally of the Prime Minister, is also under mounting pressure from backbenchers amid continuing fallout from the Budget and criticism of how the government handled the fuel panic.Mr Cameron is undergoing the most turbulent period of his premiership after accusations that ministers fed public fears over petrol supplies, which came amid simmering rows over new taxes on pensioners and pasties.The Daily Telegraph has spoken to MPs from all sections of the Conservative Party who expressed concerns about the way Mr Cameron and Mr Osborne organise and run the Coalition.But speaking both publicly and privately, MPs have identified four areas where they say Mr Cameron should make changes:

344. Tax matters

Ms Harman was disarmingly honest when she recently told a radio interviewer that she thinks people on middle incomes should contribute more through their taxes. So today I am looking at Labour’s various suggestions of who might pay more tax and how, inviting comment on these potential policies.

345. An EU referendum is coming. Which party will get the credit? – Telegraph Blogs

It's the Prisoner's Dilemma. The party which offers a referendum on leaving the EU will gain a hefty electoral premium. Though neither of the big two is exactly enthusiastic – politicians rarely like to initiate projects with uncertain outcomes – each wants to stop the other getting there first.In March, I suggested that an In/Out referendum was starting to look inevitable. A month later, Newsnight's Allegra Stratton, whose sources are generally excellent, Tweeted that both parties were moving that way. A few days afterwards, Patrick O'Flynn reported in the Daily Express that Labour would promise a referendum in its next manifesto. The following week, Peter Mandelson called for such a vote.Now James Forsyth writes in the Spectator (no link) that the inclusion of a Europe referendum in the next Conservative manifesto is 'basically a certainty'. There is some discussion over the precise timing and wording, though the preferred scenario seems to be an In/Out vote following a renegotiation, as first suggested here. Even The Economist has reluctantly come to accept that such a vote is on the way.

347. Tory MP Robert Halfon: We Should be the Party of Redistribution, Full Employment, Social Justice

In the immediate aftermath of UKIP council seat gains across the United Kingdom, the 'little to the left' website Conservative Home held its annual conference in Westminster.Noteworthy amongst other reported comments were those by Conservative Party MP and Tory HQ darling Robert Halfon. Halfon's position in Harlow is precarious at best, and recently dozens of young Tory activists took to the constituency in an attempt to shore up Mr Halfon's vote.So it may have hurt a little to see UKIP gain 5 seats on Harlow council yesterday, as well as taking over a third of the popular vote in the area – mostly from former Tory voters.

349. Steve Hilton to leave Downing Street: Has the raven left the Tower? The Tory Diary

The news has just broken that Steve Hilton is leaving Number 10 in the summer for one year's sabbatical at Stanford University as a visiting scholar. Some wonder if he'll return. I think the answer is no.Steve is infuriating. He upsets people with his restlessness. Some of his ideas aren't thought out. He has an idea and he expects it to be implemented yesterday. He has an impatience with important things like opinion research. Inexcusably he didn't want his Big Society idea tested before it was launched.

350. The Conservatives should prepare for life after David Cameron - Telegraph

The 'modernisers’ now appear out of touch and have alienated many natural supporters, argues Iain Martin.If the Tory modernising movement has a godfather, it is Francis Maude. In the days before David Cameron and George Osborne were MPs, when Michael Portillo saw himself as the heir to Tony Blair, Mr Maude was the original advocate of “detoxifying” the Conservative Party. Out should go talk of immigration, opposition to the European Union, crime or tax cuts. In its place there would instead be an embrace of Notting Hill social liberalism, an acceptance of large parts of the Blair-Brown settlement and an abandonment of ties.How fitting that more than 10 years after Mr Maude began his crusade it should be remarks made by him last week about “kitchen suppers” with donors in Number 10, and foolish advice on stockpiling petrol, that have precipitated a new Tory identity crisis. In a poll published yesterday, 72 per cent of those questioned said that the Government is out of touch with ordinary voters, while only 17 per cent disagreed with that proposition.

352. Conservative Conference: What Have the Tories Got to Smile About?

"A funeral", "a wake", "awful", "dead". These are some of the words used by attendees to describe Labour’s annual conference last week. That is Labour, the party which barring a miracle will sweep to power at next year’s general election and see its leader, Ed Miliband, become Prime Minister.Contrast that language with "upbeat", "happy" and "punchy", some of the words used by delegates gauging the tone at Conservative Party conference in Birmingham this week. A party which, exempt that same miracle, is highly likely to be consigned to defeat in eight months’ time.The Prime Minister was on combative form on Sunday night at a party held for MPs, journalists and high profile party members at the top of the poshest hotel in England’s second city. David Cameron delighted his audience by dismissing Labour as a “complete shower”, also condemning turncoat UKIP defector Mark Reckless with a series of stinging comments vowing to regain his seat for the Tories.
