Tories

Truthfully, I don't much care who ends up at the head of the Conservative Party. I don't even know much about the contenders. I don't know where they stand on the various issues.

I did manage to watch about 15 minutes from the recent party conference and all of that 15 minutes was during David Cameron's speech. He's the darling of the media, and, probably, the Conservative Party. I can't put my finger on it, but there's just something about the man's speaking style that really annoyed me.

It was only after I'd watched that speech that I learned that he was a contender for the leadership because at the time I remember thinking to myself that he'd never make it as a minister. I never even imagined that he had his eye on the premiership.
