Norman Tebbit on Brexit and the Tories

In the Telegraph.

I did, particularly, like one comment.

well, perhaps I will be unable to resist the temptation to point out that the pensions of former EU Commissioners might be at risk were they to bring that body into dispute!


For some, killing the Kinnocks pensions might be worth the entire struggle to rid the UK of the EU shackles….

The article is here

Ctrl F takes you to the quote, however, the article is about Tebbit's thoughts on Cameron and how he is handling an increasingly argumentative Tory party. His argument goes that unless Cameron gets a grip he will be handing the 2020 election to Corbyn and Labour.

I think that is a bit too much of a fantasy, he his more likely to had the party over to Boris, but Tebbit makes some cracking points about how the Remainers are handling the referendum campaign. I have similar thoughts.

Sorry, wrote it in word as it's less visible on my work machine. I've fixed the link now....

Yes it is about the Tories and what Brexit is doing to them because of how Cameron is handling it.

However I believe you are right. It is more likely that he will hand the party to Boris and then he'll lead us to the next election on a more popular position.

If the British people can vote for Corbyn in power, I might consider resigning my position as a British citizen......
