		<description><![CDATA[I understand the political rhetoric from the Lib Dems – that they have extracted hard won progressive concessions from the Conservatives, to  temper the worst excesses of a traditional Tory government. Some of them may believe this, more are –hopefully-  just trying to bring their party with them on a course that was anathema to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Conservatives have inflicted upon Labour their worst defeat ever. Rightly this has left Labour as nothing but idle observers for now; the Lib Dems and Conservatives must now make crucial choices &#8211; on power, on policy, and about the direction of the respective parties. The country is watching, and the one thing the electorate [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When the voters make a choice at election time, their decision is often not about whether they support the candidate&#8217;s policy platform as neatly laid out in a manifesto, but whether they trust the candidate&#8217;s judgement in the heat of an as yet unknown crisis. In making that decision, voters rely on all manner of quite unpredictable observations [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If David Miliband&#8217;s intervention yesterday was supposed to inspire Labour MPs to pile in behind a nascent leadership bid, it should only serve to convince us that whoever is leading Labour, the party is now shot below the water-line and unable to right itself.
When you contrast David Cameron&#8217;s pitch to change our party with that offered to Labour by David [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nick Clegg may see his tax announcement today as the first major step in modernising the Liberal Democrats, a key stage in his stated goal of doubling the number of Lib Dem MPs. He has certainly chosen a prize &#8217;sacred cow&#8217; to slay. When the political history is written, will it be his Clause 4 moment or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[David Cameron&#8217;s injection of morality into the political discourse has struck a chord.  He seems to have tapped into the zeitgeist:  our thoroughly modern and amoral society has over time become a tragically broken and immoral one - to such an extent that, though many still struggle to cast aside their well-cultivated amorality, people are ready to follow someone who is prepared to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The leader piece in The Times yesterday was wrong. For me, Cameron’s Conservatives do have a clear view of what we would like to achieve, the vision we have for our country, and the narrative by which we would achieve it. It is a vision very different from the course which Brown is currently, chaotically, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just don’t understand it. At first, I wasn&#8217;t really a David Davis fan, but no-one could deny he was a good communicator to whom voters related, he added credibility to the government-in-waiting that Cameron was forming, and he had a political cunning that had out-done, indeed done-over,  several Labour ministers. So what on earth is he doing?
Today has [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a good week for town halls!
David Cameron held the first &#8216;Cameron Direct&#8217; town hall meeting earlier this week.
On the same day, John McCain challenged Obama to a joint town hall meeting every week between now and November 4th.
In my view, Cameron should go further than his current idea and issue the McCain challenge to Gordon Brown [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I absolutely understand that our party must be united to be victorious &#8211; but we have to be united and right, not united and wrong. So I think we need to speak out because there are people within our party who, emboldened by our recent success, are vociferously pushing an agenda that is simply nuts! Their argument seems [...]]]></description>
