  This speech has had a lukewarm reception right across the media. if you bear in mind that even traditional Tory papers who used to slavishly support Conservatism like the one mentioned by Howard above...if even they cant see the upside then the whole thing must be flagging. There was no recipe for growth in the speech..this seems to be the media concensus.
  
  Instead we had much talk about that navel gazing aspect...which nobody across the country is staying awake nights over...ie House of Lords reform...zzzz
  
  Nationally this produces unbridled yawning from Lands End to John' o' Groats. A huge amount of parliamentary time is to be devoted to this, while all about us quake and reel. A clear case of Nero fiddling while Rome burns...or to use that other one..shifting deckchairs on the Titanic.
