Mogg’s poll position

What a truly excellent article last week by Jacob Rees-Mogg about how a referendum is the only way to stop a shabby Labour-led coalition from changing the way we elect our leaders. It is true that Blair’s ‘new Labour’ government wrecked this country, but we have now had a Conservative Government for a similar period as Blair’s lot and every facet of this country is now broken.

When the least capable-togovern MP tries to give us tips on how to protect democracy from Labour, you know what it is really about: trying to make us forget about the Tories’ catastrophic track record over the past 12 years. What about starting with cleaning up your own party, where outdated rules prevent its members from directly picking their leader?
