How resolute is Tamzin?

issue 05 January 2008

It’s that time of year again My Fellow Compassionates! So here they are, my New Year’s Resolutions for 2008!

1.) Go easy on the policy. I don’t know about you but I’m suffering a major hangover in this department. Not that I haven’t enjoyed being at the cutting edge. I was as surprised as anyone when Dave adopted all 26 of the ideas I scrawled down on Pony Club notelets during one particularly gruelling emergency manifesto writing session. But enough is enough. If we’re not careful someone is going to dig out all these promises and hold us to them when we’re in government!

2.) Get on the right side of Lord Ashcroft. It’s becoming obvious to me that Lord A is the real power around here. I don’t mean to diss Dave. It’s just that when it comes to money, strategy, organisation and attacking Labour, Lord A is the man in charge.
