daniel Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 (edited) Though Germany has had bad news lately in Britian things look a bit better. It looks that tne next leader of the conservative party will be the best thats on offer i.e. wants low taxes, supports euthanasia, abortion, zero tolerance. He also highlights American approaches to welfare reform thaty have succeeded in getting huge proprtions of American people back into work. He talks of replacing the welfare state with a welfare society i.e relying more on chairty, families looking after one another. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4262522.stm So far he has around 44 MPs, his nearest rival has around 14. Bring on 2009! What do others make of him? Also what about the issue of supporting someone who is not the best rather the least worse? Is it justified?

shakthig Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 This speech given by David Davis is interesting. http://www.david-davis.co.uk/news/news_id.asp?id=29 He is probably the best that can be hoped for within the present cultural/philosophical climate.

Congats (bet you're missing Maggie about now though). What do you see as Davis' weak spots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
