193. Left Watch | Conservative Home

By Paul Goodman Follow Paul on Twitter. Here is the full quote from Amber Elliot's trailed interview with Labour's Mayoral candidate in Total Politics: "Asked why people should vote for him, Ken jokes: "It's a simple choice between good and evil – I don't think it's been so clear since the great struggle between Churchill and Hitler… The people that don't vote for me...

194. The euro crisis, cognitive dissonance, and proof that Germans have a sense of humour –...

It looks like denial. Greeks want the euro, but not the austerity it requires. Germans want the euro but not the tax-rises it demands.In fact, what we're seeing is a form of cognitive dissonance. From the first, the euro was aggressively promoted as a way to boost growth. Indeed, the most surreal thing about all this talk of a 'growth strategy' in Brussels is that we're dealing with the consequences of the last 'growth strategy' – monetary union. None the less, two decades of propaganda have left their mark. People are not quite ready to see that the euro is the cause of their problems, not the solution.

195. Climategate 2.0: Lawson squishes Huhne – Telegraph Blogs

Have you noticed that whenever our beloved Energy and Climate Change Secretary Chris Huhne speaks his lips never move, only his butt cheeks? It was the same again on BBC Question Time last night. "But Huhne, this is just arrant nonsense," you kept wanting to scream at the TV. "And either you know it's nonsense in which case you're a liar. Or you don't know it's nonsense, in which case you're more incredibly stupid, more badly informed and more ill-advised than any Minister of the Crown has any decency to be."

196. Minchin and the nauseating moral cowardice of the liberal-left trenderati – Telegraph...

Did you hear the song Aussie comic Tim Minchin wrote savagely satirising Islam for Channel 4's Eid special? No, I didn't either. It didn't happen and it never would happen: first because no broadcast station in its right mind would ever allow it; second because I don't believe that Minchin would be stupid enough to write it.

197. More bad news for the anti-energy, green greed brigade – Telegraph Blogs

What do solar energy companies have in common with Second Lieutenants on the first day of the Somme? Yes, that's right. (H/T GWPF)In Germany, especially, the attrition rate has been amazing. According to Reuters, no fewer than 5,000 German solar companies have gone bust in the last year, shedding around 20,000 jobs.Workers in Germany's once booming solar energy industry face a shakeout of major proportions following declines in the price of solar panels over the past year.Cuts in subsidies for solar energy, weaker demand for panels and fierce competition from cheaper Asian rivals are eating into what was once the world's biggest hub for the production of solar cells, taking the shine off an industry that was effectively born in Germany.

198. Why should broke Britain bankroll immigrant spongers? – Telegraph Blogs

Out there, in the world right now, not in lunatic asylums but on the streets with actual voting rights, are angry, quasi-articulate people who sincerely believe that:1. Mentioning Roma in any vaguely critical context puts you one step away from endorsing Hitler's death camps2. Criticising welfare tourism means you're heartless and probably a Nazi3. The British exchequer is a source of limitless bounty. If there are any poor people out there in the world, it is entirely right and proper that they should partake of its largesse. To argue otherwise is morally indefensible.I wonder how these people will respond to today's Telegraph scoop that there are 370,000 economic migrants currently claiming the dole in Britain.

199. The New Statesman's attempt to paint Sayeeda Warsi's Tory critics as racist Left Watch

If you don't think Sayeeda Warsi is an ideal Tory Chairman you are a racist.The allegation is not made directly - smears rarely are - but readers of the New Statesmen are left in little doubt.The New Statesman is not the only place where you can read similar suggestions. Monday's Independent, Ian Birrell in The Guardian and ex-Statesman hack James Macintyre have all tip-toed through not dissimilar territory. I've ignored it up until now - some of it directed to me and ConHome - because you hesitate to give legs to such sulphurous stuff but it's being repeated too often to ignore.Let me deal with the racist thing first. Run a poll of Tory members and you'll find that Priti Patel is one of their very favourite new MPs. They aren't interested in her ethnicity but love her straight-talking Tory politics. Similarly there is much enthusiasm in the grassroots for the likes of Sajid Javid MP, Paul Uppal MP and Shaun Bailey as future stars. At the last election non-White Tories were selected in many heartland seats.

200. Why Britons should celebrate the American Declaration of Independence – Telegraph Blogs

We all know the story of American independence, don't we? A rugged frontier people became increasingly tired of being ruled by a distant elite. A group calling themselves Patriots were especially unhappy about being taxed by a parliament in which they were unrepresented. When, in 1775, British redcoats tried to repress them, a famous Patriot called Paul Revere rode through the night across eastern Massachusetts, crying 'The British are coming'. The shots that were fired the next day began a war for independence which culminated the following year in the statehouse of Philadelphia, when George Washington and others, meeting under Betsy Ross's gorgeous flag, signed the Declaration of Independence.It's a stirring story; but it's false in every aspect.

201. Ed Balls treats the TUC like simpletons – Telegraph Blogs

Ed Balls has never been a reticent fellow but even by his standards of bare-faced cheek his speech to the TUC this morning will take some beating.

labours-attempts-to-woo-lib-dems-like-vince-cable-are-clumsy-but-importantThere is a certain amount of eye-rolling and sniggering at Westminster over Labour’s rather clumsy efforts to woo Vince Cable, and at Mr Cable’s response. Partly this is because the whole thing is just a bit too obvious: if Labour really thought they had a chance of luring Mr Cable into some sort of illicit…

203. 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.

204. In defence of capitalism, the most virtuous economic system yet devised – Telegraph Blogs

There’s nothing selfish about capitalism. Like every economic model, it is a matrix within which individual actors can behave morally or immorally. But here’s the thing: no one has yet come up with a system that rewards decent behaviour to the same extent.In an open market based on property rights and free contract, you become wealthy by offering an honest service to others. I am typing these words on a machine developed by the late Steve Jobs. He gained from the exchange (adding fractionally to his net wealth) and so did I (adding to my convenience).Under the various forms of corporatism tried by fascist and socialist regimes, by contrast, someone else – generally a state official – gets to allocate the goodies, guaranteeing favouritism and corruption.

205. We foolishly turned our backs on South America when we joined the EEC – Telegraph Blogs

I recently went to a Sunday service at the Cathedral of the Good Shepherd in Lima – the first time I had been back, I think, since being baptised there more than 40 years ago. The clergy and the worshippers couldn’t have been friendlier, but it was impossible not to feel wistful at the sight of so many empty pews.The British have abandoned Peru. When the Church of the Good Shepherd was built on its present site in 1949, it was designed to accommodate a considerable congregation. British managers and engineers ran a great deal of Peru’s industry: railways, mines, agrarian estates and, above all, textiles. South America was the heart of what contemporaries called our ‘informal empire’, accounting for a greater proportion of our overseas investments than the Empire and Commonwealth.

206. 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.

207. Cameron's coalition of liars, trimmers and charlatans are destroying Britain's landscape

About this time ten years ago, I enjoyed one of my happiest family holidays ever. It was on Lundy which, as Will Heaven rightly says, is the most beautiful island in Britain. If you're lucky enough to be staying in one of the Landmark Trust properties on the island you get the place pretty much to yourself once the daytrippers have gone. There are fantastic cliffs for your children to fall off, puffins to look for (though usually not to see: we never did) and seals to go swimming with. It's like living out an Arthur Ransome/Enid Blyton novel for real.

208. Why I'm rooting for Barack Obama – Telegraph Blogs

Let's get one thing clear: Obama unquestionably ranks among the bottom five presidents in US history. In terms of sublime awfulness he's right up there with our late and extremely unlamented ex-PM Gordon Brown – which is quite some doing, given that Brown singlehandedly wrought more destruction on his country than the Luftwaffe, Dutch Elm Disease, the South Sea Bubble, the Fire of London and the Black Death combined.
