New Labour's soap opera is doing some real damage

Article Abstract:

The UK government seems to be responding to events, rather than taking a firm lead. As a general election approaches, it should not be relying on the very poor state of the Conservative party to protect its own position.

It's not Ashcroft's millions the Tories need, it's coherent policies

Article Abstract:

UK Conservative party Treasurer Michael Ashcroft's decision to sue the Times newspaper for libel has indirectly brought the party into conflict with Rupert Murdoch. This has in turn created significant problems for party leader William Hague, who can be forgiven for regarding Ashcroft as the party's saviour following its election defeat in 1997. However, factors other than money will ultimately determine whether the Conservative party undergoes a revival. In particular, the party must develop a set of coherent policies.
