Think for a minute, stop for a minute

According to the news this morning, David Cameron wants "all Conservatives to think carefully before they open their mouths", something many of us have been hoping for for some time.

It worries me that he's been leading the Tory party for nearly two years and it's only now - when they're criticising him - that he considers it important that his MPs start thinking.

I agree but sadly I think you credit him (or any politician) with too much moral fibre.

I think when he says 'think carefully' he doesn't so much mean 'consider whether what you are about to say is utter rubbish' as 'consider how much you need your job'.

One box of Temporal All-Bran for that man, then.

Or even "don't be so open about what Conservatism means if you ever want us to win an election again".

In the specific case in point (Michael "Gaybasher" Ancram), I'd settle for him just not opening his mouth at all.

Everything about that man and his party worries me. I'm not actually that sure who I would vote for once I'm back in the UK, but I could never bring myself to vote for that rabble.

I know that feeling. There are a host of reason not to vote labour..... but I look at the conservatives and KNOW they'd be worse..... deep in my soul I know....

Thanks for that. Worries me too.
