Dithering Dave for public domain says ``I will not lurch to the right```and to stop his backbenchers
revolt sends his right wing Ministers and cohorts out with `strong promises` of after the election a
Right Wing Conservative Government.
Flashman is trapped by his Party Politics and has become a political Jeckle and Hyde.
His promises thus far have not been carried through.
eg.Cameron ``What am I going to do about bank fraud and tax avoidance``
Cameron ``cut welfare by £ 25 Billion``
It will all end in tears......aka Thatcher......

A `betrayal`of British values;Tories accused of damaging UK`s reputation on Human Rights.
Government attacks on human rights legislation were condemned tonight as an "unhinged" betrayal of British values, destined
to destroy the country's reputation on the world stage.
As the Home Secretary and Justice Secretary separately threatened to draw back from the European Court on Human Rights,
the Conservative Party was accused of being in disarray and caving in to the right after its humiliating defeat in the Eastleigh by-
election.
Leading lawyers and human rights advocates said ministers risked making the UK a pariah state alongside Belarus - the only
European country that has not signed the European Convention on Human Rights. On a day when David Cameron claimed
there would be no "lurch to the right" in the wake of the Eastleigh result, both Chris Grayling and Theresa May were accused of
pandering to the far right of their party.

Cabinet in revolt over £ 10 Billion Budget cuts.
David Cameron faced a deepening Cabinet revolt on spending last night after both Vince Cable and Philip Hammond joined the
battle against further cuts to departmental budgets. As the Prime Minister tried to put the setback of the Eastleigh by-election
behind him, it appeared that a greater threat was a growing split within Cabinet before the spending review in June. After an
outspoken intervention by the Defence Secretary, the Liberal Democrat Business Secretary became the latest to be identified
as part of the "National Union of Ministers" — a Cabinet faction determined to protect their spending against the Treasury's
demand for an extra £10 billion in cuts in 2015-16.Theresa May and Eric Pickles are also furious with Osborne.

Special Forces face 40% cuts in post-Afghan reorganisation........
Former members of the special forces have expressed concern at a costcutting plan that that could lead to Britain's elite
military units being shrunk by up to 40 per cent.
The proposals, drawn up by the director of special forces, include taking the two reservist regiments of the Special Air Service
(SAS) — 21 SAS and 23 SAS — out of the special forces command chain and attaching them to the regular Army reserves.
Special Boat Forces ( SBS ) also facing cut from 4 squadrons to 3....................

David Cameron tells Cabinet;;stop trying to dodge the cuts and leave Welfare to suffer the pain......how true!!!!!!!!!!
David Cameron is to order Cabinet ministers to end their "cuts nymbism" as they threaten to derail George Osborne's demands
for another £10bn of spending reductions.
The Prime Minister is to rebuff Conservative ministers who are pushing for more cuts to the welfare budget in an attempt to
protect their own departments from the Chancellor's axe. He will point out that £3.6bn has already been shaved off the benefits
bill in 2015-16, and argue it is time for other ministers to keep the Government's deficit-reduction strategy on track.
One close ally of the Prime Minister said: "You cannot be a fiscal conservative and then say that does not apply in your own
department." The ally said it should be possible to find £10bn of savings in the 2015-16 financial year from the £150bn-a-year of
government spending that is not "ring-fenced". The three protected budgets are health, schools and overseas aid.

Osborne weighs growth and immigration conflict.......the contradictions of Tory policy have been
evident for some time.Osborne wants / needs immigrants to boost economic growth but Theresa May has put her wardrobe full
of shoes on cutting immigration.
Another Osborne scheme bites the dust...funding for lending,government flagship to boost credit
creation has failed to stop decline in lending during the final 3 months of last year sparking calls from Vince Cable to review the
``disappointing ``scheme.

Theresa May boosts Tory leadership chances with approach to the right wing.
May has burnished her right wing credentials as a candadate for the Conservative party leadership
by suggesting that immigrants may be forced to pay a cash bond if they travel to Britain.
As ministers jostle for position amid speculation that Cameron could face a leadership challenge this summer.
Theresa Mays`s tactics have been compared to those adopted by Sir John Major before he became prime minister in 1990

Watchdog contradicts Cameron on impact of austerity on growth
David Cameron has become involved in a dispute with the Office for Budget Responsibility about the impact of austerity
measures on economic growth.
In a speech on the economy on Thursday, the prime minister said the independent watchdog had made it "absolutely clear" that spending cuts and tax rises were not responsible for the weak economy.
But the OBR said it had been arguing for years that this was an issue.
In response, Downing Street said the OBR had also identified other factors.
The BBC's political correspondent Chris Mason said the comments were a rebuke for the prime minister, since they concerned
the coalition's central economic message and came from an organisation which it had set up in 2010 to provide independent
growth and borrowing forecasts.
