In many ways Cameron is more radical than Thatcher. The Conservative party are a broad community, many different views, I have my own some of which differ strongly with the leadership. We have many MP's that don't just follow the leader, it's good that we can have debate within a party. Basing things on current Tory MP's is fruitless, it'll be a completely different makeup after the next general election, whoever wins.

Unfortunately for Labour they've picked the one policy that nearly everyone in the Tory party is agreed on. The one policy where Cameron had no resistance from the party in his changes. A national health service that offers health to all not just those that can afford it.
