Hey, i'm new on here, just though i'd link you to an interesting article by Gisela Stuart in the torygraph http://www.telegraph.co.uk/opinion/main.jh...05/31/ixop.html
strange enough hearing a former Labour minister talk in the torygraph but even weirder when this could easily have been an article written by norman tebbit, it's frustrating hearing disgruntled blairites basically do the tories work for them, attaking the goverment for exessive 'tax and spend'. I'd love to hear what you guys think.

I'd start with Victim of Georgraphy and Back to Basics and work from there.

Hi Steven,
Doesn't surprise me about Gisela Stuart at all. I used to have some contact with her through a prior campaign. Where she's criticised Blair it's always been from the right. She was the only Labour MP to call for Bush's re-election - of the Labour MPs who opposed the EU constitution, she was the only one to oppose it from the right.

I think her partner is Derek Scott, the PM's former economic advisor, who is pretty right-wing also, http://politics.guardian.co.uk/eu/comment/...1601714,00.html

Hi Graham, Yeah, i guess i shouldn't be suprised she is New Labour, i just think that critisising Labour from the right does the party no good, but i've alway's had the belief that most blairites couldn't give a damn about the party, and would probably rather see 'Dave' in no 10 rather than Gordon Brown.

Also on the EU i'm actually quite Anti EU, but strangley i oppose it for exactly the opposite reasons that Gisela stuart does!!!
