It's funny when a debate about the next Tory candidate turns into a lament on the death of socialism..Cashman is correct when saying socialism was put aside in the 97 election but there is a clear drawn line between Labour and the Tories.

Tories will always have an ideal that encourages the vast majority to work harder and do more for the sake of the nations economy, this is a well trodden path were the rich remain in comfort, it's been that ideal for 200yrs and no matter how they tart it up it always will be ..anyone just about getting by in these times should have a look at the Tories history before they vote.
In 1993 over 14 million people voted Tory, more than at any other election in history, by your yardstick Mancie that says there are 14 million rich people in this county, or is it there are people who saw Socialism for what it was, unworkable, because those who profess it don't practice what they preach
