257. Small wonder Labour are enthusiastic tax-avoiders - the party is in dire financial straits

Today's Times contains an awkward revelation for Ed Miliband - despite turning a surplus last year, Labour managed to organise its tax affairs so efficiently that the party paid no corporation tax whatsoever.Of course, there's no suggestion they did anything illegal, but given Miliband's regular drum-beating about the immorality of tax avoidance it is more than ironic to see his party's accountants engaged in such nifty footwork. Had they paid tax on the headline surplus, their bill would have been over half a million pounds.

262. Liberal Democrats consider black voters 'useful idiots' | Washington Times Communities

Shocking title, isn’t it? But it is not hyperbole. “Useful idiots” are people who work as propagandists for causes whose goals they do not understand, and who are used cynically by the leaders of the cause.Black Americans are largely non-monolithic, with the exception of political party affiliation. Since 1968, black voters have aligned with the Democratic candidate for U.S. President by an average 88.5% to 11.5% over all other parties. According to BlackDemographics.com, the highest percentage was for Barack Obama in 2008 (95%), while the low was 76% for Michael Dukakis.Many black Americans don’t know U.S. History. The first black U.S. Congressmen were Republican. There was not a black Democrat until more than sixty years later. Those early black congressmen (in Reconstruction times) were part of a Republican majority that passed comprehensive legislation that outlawed any form of discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion or gender.That sweeping legislation was repealed less than 20 years later by the Democratic majority

263. Everything Points to a Tory Defeat and Ed Miliband Becoming Prime Minister

Bookmakers, pollsters and increasingly Conservative commentators are coming to the conclusion that the Tories are going to be out of office in nine months' time. Yet despite almost everything pointing to a Tory defeat at next year's general election, the mood in Downing Street and Conservative headquarters is calm, even confident.Do they know something we don't? Or are David Cameron and his team sleepwalking towards the prospect of Prime Minister Miliband?On paper it is difficult to see any other outcome. This government’s failure to reform constituency boundaries - either Lib Dem betrayal or Tory hara-kiri depending on your perspective - means that before a vote is cast Labour already has a considerable advantage.

264. Roger Helmer MEP: Twenty questions for Conservatives about David Cameron's Government Comment

Twenty Questions for Conservatives...David Cameron gave a “cast iron guarantee”, in the Sun newspaper on Sept 26th 2007, for a Lisbon referendum. But after the Treaty was ratified, he dropped the commitment. Should he have changed his mind? The Tory Manifesto (like Labour & Lib-Dems) promised an EU referendum. Should Cameron honour that promise? Why did Cameron whip his MPs in Westminster to oppose an EU referendum? Both Conservative and Lib-Dem manifestos promised to address the European parliament’s travelling circus between Brussels and Strasbourg (costing £200m a year). Yet the Coalition failed to back moves by Tory MEPs to curtail it. Why was that? The Party had a commitment to repatriating powers from Brussels. It has made no attempt to do so. Was Cameron right to forget it? Do you feel that Cameron tried hard enough to resist EU financial regulation; the EU diplomatic service (EEAS); the European Investigation Order etc etc? Do you understand why he whipped his MEPs to support the EEAS in Brussels? Do you feel that the government should do more to reform - or withdraw from - the European Arrest Warrant? It is reported that George Osborne plans to make more UK funds available, via the IMF, for the €uro bail-outs. Do you think that this is a good idea? Do you agree that Abu Qatada, and other foreign terrorist suspects and criminals, should be repatriated, regardless of the European Court of Human Rights? Do you believe that the Coalition’s green policies are about saving the planet - or about political correctness, gesture politics and raising taxes? Do you approve of the plan to cover Britain with 30,000 wind turbines by 2020? Or do you fear it will despoil our countryside, raise energy prices, undermine industrial competitiveness, and drive families into fuel poverty? And that in any case the target will not be achieved, risking serious supply shortages? Are you happy with Osborne’s “static”, zero-sum fiscal model? Must tax cuts always be compensated by rises elsewhere? Or do you think that some taxes could be reduced without affecting revenue, and that such tax cuts would promote growth? Like the 50% rate, and National Insurance holidays for young employees? More generally, do you feel that the Coalition urgently needs a growth strategy?

265. Rick Santorum is a big government conservative. He'd be a disaster in the White House –...

I'm trying to think of good reasons why Rick Santorum did so well in the Iowa caucus, only losing to Romney by 8 votes. So far all I can come up with is:1. He's not Mitt Romney.2. He's not Newt Gingrich.3. Iowans feel more intellectual voting for the only candidate with a surname which sounds like a Latin genitive plural.4. They're cussed, flinty, independent-minded folk those Iowans and aren't going to let small details like electability get in the way of their decision-making.5. Santorum put a lot of energy into sucking up to Iowans and anyway he's the kind of old school, bible-bashing social conservative that they like.What this doesn't mean, though, is that we're going to end up with President Santorum. Or, if we do, it will be a disaster. As Michael Tanner notes at NRO, Santorum is the very opposite of what the US wants or needs right now. He's a big government conservative.

266. Boris blasts the opposition: Labour want to return to the 'nasty, racist 1970s', Ukip to the 1950s and the Greens would rewind to the bronze age

The London Mayor, who today launched the Tory campaign in the capital, said the Labour leader was 'hostile' to people who wanted to own their own home and would embark on an 'orgy of regulation'.

267. Vince Cable, the Psammead Business Secretary - Left Watch (ConHome)

Readers may recognise the two faces above. One is an ancient, grumpy and rather self-centred creature which claims to know secrets unavailable to ordinary mortals. The other is the Psammead, from Edith Nesbit's Five Children and It.The cantankerous Psammead promises its audience that their fantastical wishes can come true - and then brings them crashing down to earth within a few hours. His uneasy coalition with the five children who discover it living in a sand pit is an uneasy one - without him, they would never be able to go on their adventures, but in return they have to put up with his constant grumblingand the limits of his powers. I suspect you're starting to see that the resemblance with Vince extends beyond the eyebrows.The Business Secretary is playing out his Psammead role again today. Only a couple of days since George Osborne's positive headlines about the progress the economy is making, and there is more good news from the employment statistics today, but Vince has brought the dark clouds rolling back in.

268. Chris Bryant's immigration speech isn't just a car crash, it's a full on, bollard-smashing...

During the 2010 General Election campaign, a Labour photo opp with Gordon Brown was interrupted by a car colliding with a bus stop. At that point, I thought it was as bad as things could get - how could any metaphorical car crash by a politician possibly outdo the real thing?Chris Bryant is evidently more imaginative, and has today embarked on a one man mission to prove me wrong. Belted into the driver's seat of a rhetorical red mini metro, he careered through the political media, ploughing into bollards, oncoming traffic, tourists and both mounted cavalrymen outside Horseguards.Just to ensure the job was done properly, he brought his political road-trip to a halt by effecting a head-on collision with an Alan Partridge-style joke about how easy it is to mistakenly think obese women are pregnant. The metaphorical car is definitely a write-off.

So, the economy is growing. Recent surveys of activity are solid. Confidence is rising. Our crucial task is to make sure everyone who wants to work hard – in all parts of the country, in all sectors of our economy, have the chance to be part of the recovery.We hear too that Labour, having lost the argument on deficit reduction, have a newfound interest in living standards. It’s a vital subject. So let’s look at the debate on living standards, past present and future.

272. Labour attack Boris for Council Tax cut | Local Government

Today has seen a huge, perhaps critical, mistake by the Ken Livingstone campaign in their response to the decision of the Mayor of London Boris Johnson to cut the Council Tax precept by 1%. They have attacked it superficially on the grounds of its modesty:Labour's London Assembly budget spokesman, John Biggs, points out that Boris Johnson's decision to cut his share of the council tax will save the average Londoner 26p a month - enough to buy one onion.The Mayor today announced that he will cut City Hall's share of council tax by £3.10 a year - 26p a month, 6p a week, or less than a penny a day.On the same logic an earlier Labour press release made the point that a 1% rise would only cost 26p a month. We could all just cut back on the onions a bit and see our money go on reinstating a few Diversity Awareness Co-ordinators at City Hall.
