1997 All Over Again?
Now that the BBC has simply stopped scrutinising the Tories, making no mention whatever either of the illegal donations to David Cameron’s constituency party or of Cameron’s dispute with John Redwood, who will do so? Sky News? ITN? I only ask. For, if no one steps up this plate, then we risk going into a General Election with absolutely no discussion of the policies, or lack of them, of the admittedly rather nominal Opposition. That was what happened in 1997. And look how that ended up.
