What happened to Tories and the free market?
'The Tories have abandoned the free market and are now firmly in favour of a planned economy.'
'What happened to the consumer? At best Mr Cameron pays lip-service; at worst he is disingenuous. Towards the end of the document, he discusses “cutting the cost of security”. The last two words are the giveaway because, unlike old Tory thinking, this is not about cutting cost at all. It is about the much higher prices we must pay to meet the bill for minimum carbon prices and guaranteed prices for renewable energy.'

It's all very confusing.
Does this make the Times anti-Tory Lite, or pro-Labour?
Perhaps someone with an in depth insight into the political allegiance of the press, in General Election years, will helpfully come along and explain it to us.
