No doubt this will hasten Caroline Spellmans return to the back benches, she seems wholly out of her depth on the front benches. A pleasant individual its true, but hopelessly out powered by others and untapped into the public psyche. Mr Cameron must be spitting feathers at the mention of her name right now, as this forrest flogging idea has been an awful mess from day one and with no prospect of even saving money.
I saw her pushing this on the BBC's Question Time and absolutely everyone hated it. From little Libdem enclaves in Northumbria, to Conservative hamlets in the shires, to the spirited Labour council housed voters of Hackney..everyone hated it.
It was heartening to see the nation united on something!!
