Funny, I can find a lot of people who believe the benefits need to be simplified and looked at again but I find very few that think this Govt is doing it fairly and with understanding of the real problems people face.

Kent is a beautiful place but also is usually strong Conservative heartland however, so I wouldn't put too much strength as to that being the view nationwide arista.
I wonder if they could find that many Conservative supporters in one place who'd want to turn out to listen to George, the man with the successful personality bypass.

The Conservative Party refuse to say how many members they have. Do you know why that is? Because they have alienated so many people that they have hardly any members left. That's bad for a party who rely solely on supporters and donations, unlike Labour who currently get Union support. It seems to me that since they formed the Coalition, the Tories have only ever opened their mouths to change feet. They've lurched from one dilemma to another and followed ludicrously unpopular decision with another ludicrously unpopular decision, so much so that even their dyed-in-the-wool faithful are deserting them in droves. And when you think things couldn't get any worse for them, someone at HQ calls the people raising the money and doing the actual supporting, swivel-eyed loons. It's like they have a death-wish. They're out at the next election, and sadly, I can't see anyone better waiting in the wings.
