Christina Speight's "Facts, Figures and Phantasies" newsletter ran for years. It was originally a pro-UKIP effort, at a time when Christina was in UKIP. She left UKIP quite a few years ago, maybe in the split which created the short-lived Reform Party back in about 1999? (I could be wrong about that), but she carried on producing the newsletter.

The only thing she has in common with the Christina who sometimes posts here is that both have been through several parties. (Nowt wrong with that...)

Default More "tough love" for Cameron from Christina

Well i'm - as some may have noticed - NOT a Cameron fan. To say "The last four leaders from Major to Howard looked like refugees from a freak show. Cameron looks good and sounds good. That's why he's turned the polls around." is preposterous.

After the disastrous Major the party didn't have a chance under Hague, IDS or Howard though Howard damn near made it. (We won more votes in england than anyone else)

Cameron does emphatically NOT look good. He is flabby round the neck and face and flabby in his leadership too. HE hasn't turned the polls around. Blair has turned them round. If Cameron had been any good he would have capitalised on Blair's collapse and been 10 /12 points ahead by now.

Malvolio - We'll have to disagree on what Cameron LOOKS like. I think he is physically one of the most creepily unattractive men around. He looks like like an overweight over-rich, over-privileged slob. But that's just what I think he LOOKS like.

What I really dislike about him is his spineless, gutless inability to say anything important ABOUT anything important!

Default Criticism of David Cameron and Campbell

I am absolutely convinced that the Labour Party will launch a massive campaign to discredit David Cameron and to criticise him severely.

There was something in the press a few weeks ago about Labour planning a "summer offensive" against David Cameron, but - probably due to Labour's internal financial problems and leadership crisis - it appears to have been delayed a short while.

But it will happen :shock: .

I read in the Telegraph the other day that the former assistant to Lady Thatcher, Sir Bernard Ingham said "Is David Cameron a Conservative?" It's a question many other people in the Conservative have been asking for a while now.

On a related point, the leader of the europhile Liberal 'Democrats', Sir Menzies Campbell, is not in a strong position and could be deposed well before the next General Election, in my opinion :twisted: .

Mrs. Christina Speight does appear to change her mind slightly from time to time. A few days ago she posted to Conservative Home a message of praise for David Cameron in view of a 7% opinion poll lead for the Conservatives reported by YouGov in the Daily Telegraph.

It has to be said that there were, of course, much larger opinion poll leads for the pro-EU Lie-bour Party leader Neil Kinnock before both of the General Elections he (thankfully) lost.

Most of the time dear Christina is totally off her trolley.

But she's right about Cameron.
