Today is the day I have wanted to see for a long time. It's the day which told me I will win the election. You had to be with me to believe it. I was out in Wells this morning and Wicken Green this afternoon. The number of people who told me they were really impressed by our conference was astonishing. And they were normal people, not political obsessives. We got a dozen new poster sites today too. I can't tell you how optimistic I feel. Now, after three...
CLEANER HOSPITALS, MORE POLICE, CONTROLLED IMMIGRATION, LOWER TAXES, SCHOOL DISCIPLINE AND.... ACCOUNTABILITY. GOT IT?!
Well spotted. Fancy me going off message!
ReplyDeleteI hate to cast a shadow on all this excitment about the conference, but I have just seen this in the Sunday Torygraph (who don't print anything anti-tory lightly):
ReplyDelete'The ICM survey, the first to be carried out since the Conservative conference last week, gives Labour - who had the support of 39 per cent of those questioned - a nine- point lead over the Tories, who had 30 per cent.'
And, bad new for you and all your PPC friends...
'using the same calculations, [the tories] would not gain any seats at all, but end up losing nine of their current 165 MPs. Labour would drop just three seats to 400 and the Lib Dems would gain 10, taking them to 61 MPs.
Oh dear!
