Well now Hezzas gone and done it! He's called for IDS to be replaced by Ken Clarke and Michael Portillo, and without the bother of a leadership election. Is this possible? I would guess so -- the Queen will recognise as Prime Minister the person who can command a majority of MPs in the House, not the person who commands a majority of the Old Dears and Retired Colonels in the country.
Was it right? Disloyalty is never an attractive trait, and Heseltine has shown it more than many. However, as I have noted before, IDS can demand no loyalty off anyone after his disgraceful behaviour during the Major years.
