I read Built to Last before I voted on it the other evening (by text message!) It’s a fantastic document that I commend from the bottom of my heart. There is none of the previous valueless stuff in there — if you’re Conservative and even slightly liberal you’ll agree with the document from cover to cover.

I admit, while I defend Cameron to old-fashioned Tories, I was anxious about what may be in the document. It could have been less specific and it could have made non-Tory sopps to other interests. But no.

As I read I grew more and more pleased with the party’s new direction. As I read I grew more and more hopeful that those last late-middle-aged bigots may be compelled to leave the party. I suspect and expect this document to be endorsed strongly. I hope it is.
