According to the front page story in today’s Times there are people inside the Tory party who are secretly admitting that they have no chance of winning the forthcoming General Election.
I’m surprised that they ever thought they had any chance of winning. In my opinion they should be more worried about whether they come second or third. I know that many former Labour voters will be registering protest votes this time (and who can blame them), but I strongly suspect that the majority of these votes will be going to the Lib Dems rather than the Tories.
