I've been finding out lately that a disturbing number of you are conservatives/Tory supporters of some stripe or another. Being somewhat of a flaming red socialist myself, I'm interested in how you guys justify the belief that the rich ought to get richer and the poor ought to fend for themselves that seems to be the Tory standpoint to me...

It's worth pointing out that Bush won't talk to Michael Howard at the moment.

That may be because he's not important enough to waste time on...

FWIW in the general context of the post, as a LibDem shading to Green voter I think high taxes are perfectly acceptable for decent public services, but that doesn't mean the current services couldn't be improved without putting more money in. Which is rather a copout, so perhaps it's a good thing nobody I support has a chance in hell of ending up in government. :)

I think that sounds like an entirely sensible position! :)

On the other hand; as I said; I'm an anarcho-communist.
