The first time I broke with my left wing family tradition and voted Tory was 1992. That was the first year I joined the Tories (it would take me a few years before I would become active). I thought the floor would open up beneath me.
I knew for years I was too economically literate to be as left wing as I tried to convince myself I was, but the party leader who convinced me that this was the case was Neil Kinnock. There’s no way that this incompetent manque preacher could be allowed to run the country, and I had to face up to the fact – like millions of others – that I would have to vote for people I despised to save the country from this idiot.
However the man who saved the country - and the Labour Party – from Neil Kinnock was John Major. And John Major’s coming to Ipswich this Saturday, 6th March. Details are below:
