David Cameron writing in this morning's Observer gives us yet another example of why touchy/feely Tories don't really mean it. He writes about social cohesion...
". Cohesion is as much about rich and poor, included and left behind as it is about English and Scot or Muslim and Christian."
only to follow it with this...
"Inspiring as well as demanding loyalty from every citizen will require a new crusade for fairness."
Yes, that's right, just like Dubya, he's going to reassure the Muslim world by embarking on a crusade!
Taken from the comments box on the Observer article, which display a somewhat less than convinced set of responses to New Toryism... I particularly liked this....
