Duncers in trouble
What does The Quiet Man have to do to get some respect?He takes us into the lead in the opinion polls, with well over 30% of the electorate saying they will vote for us, and his own deputy leader tells the FT he needs to be more aggressive! That's just not his style David, and you should no that. He could barely bring himself to sack you even when you were plotting against him!
Backbench opinion is even worse.
"suicidal . . . People are finally concluding that we can't carry on like this any more. With a government that's doing this badly, and us just about level pegging with the bloody Lib Dems, it's a disaster."
Another said: "Almost anyone would be an improvement," and a backbench colleague said: "We have not a snowball's chance in hell of winning the next election . . . The party is in dire straits, heading towards oblivion and we need not just a new leader but a new shadow cabinet and a whole new strategy. It's a complete shambles."
I think it's time for all us Conservatives to make a public show of support for The Quiet Man, who needs us more than ever.
