Only Smarties have the answer


I saw this and thought immediately of that famous advert.

There is a serious point to be made here however and much has been made in recent days over the apparent lack of Conservative policy esp in foreign affairs and economic matters.

The fact is that whilst there is no excuse for a lack of foreign policy, the public are looking to the Government for economic solutions at the moment. It is also worth pointing out that the Conservatives have had many of their suggestions taken up by the Government.

Public attention will only turn on the Conservatives at the Party Conference in October. That is when there is the most targeted media attention on parties, even when there are local and European elections in the same year. I suspect there wont be a no notes speech this year - far from it!

I am drafting something as we speak on this and hope to post it this evening.
