I hope this is funny

Tories clearly have two new games.
the first is that old rebranding trick - the name game. conservative sounds a it like conservation at all. So they hope by having postures splicing themselves with the green party that no one will notice they are not (and never have been). tis move is all the more interesting as it allows them to pose as the bridge between big business, ecology, conservation and the country side alliance, and do it without ever a policy being drafted (or even being draftable!)
The other one is saying day and slightly enaging thing about helping the poor . I mean if you say something in a nice enough way then people at least know you mean to do it. If your policies (and they have published policies about this one) do the opposite, never mind, you tried hard. Which is then of course more than than Mr Brown,who always frowns (but who actually well occassaionaly) has policies to held (specially selected and worthy) poor.
And Jane Austen showed us one can go far in having the illusion of goodness, rather than the real thing. All the more so because if you do have the real thing,t hen any slip in you goodness will really be counted against you!
