Being the Agent of Change

Change is the main Cameron message at the moment. He wants to demonstrate that the Conservative Pary has changed, and all his efforts are geared towards that end. It seems David Cameron is not the only politician to highlight the change message. Click HERE for the Clinton take on it.

Change agents sounds like a buzzword. The subtleties of US politics are lost on me, but presumably the Democrats are going to engage in some political cross-dressing to try to drag some conservative-minded voters into their tent.

Cameron's decided he has to run down the centre ground to appeal to Lib Dem and ex-Labour voters. He knows he will get much better media support if he does.

The only problem is that hardcore Conservative voter are becoming enraged. On the key issue of traditonal Conservative concern, the EU, Cameron appears to be sceptic and not compliant. The traditionalists should realise how lucky they are to have Cameron and start backing him, cross-dressing and all.

Clothes can always be changed again later.

Perhaps 'change agents' is a recommended course of action rather than a description...

Cameron may well be a sceptic but our continued membership of the profoundly undemocratic EU flies in the faced of "traditional" Conservative values.

Very soon, this once proud nation could be nothing more than a worthless region of a modern-day Roman Empire.

We are undergoing a coup d'etat by stealth.

To radically change the nature of an established political party is nothing short of 'hihacking'. Blair did this by converting Labour to New Labour and now it would appear that Dave Cameron is trying to copycat this with the Conservatives.

Why don't these modernists create an own party? Answer's simple really.. they haven't the creative talent or guts to tackle something afresh as they need something established and failsafe to build on. It's all to do with a society that counts experience in weeks rather than years, plagerises everything instead of creating and uses those of us that naively allow it, to help them on their lazy but ambitious paths.
