Don't I have enough to do already?

It's been an extremely busy few weeks with little time left over for things like DoverWatch, not least of which because of certain deranged idiots at party headquarters who have convinced themselves that we can win the next general election "if we work hard enough".

I have no idea what this conviction is based upon but I'm fairly certain it's not our own research which clearly shows we haven't got a snowball's chance in hell of winning. Either now or in the foreseeable future.

As things stand we would probably end up with around 150 seats having lost most of the marginals and several previously safe seats. Naturally this could change at the drop of a hat - after all, a week can be a long time in politics - and if things go badly enough we could end up as a minority party for the first time since the end of the Second World War. All it would take is another scandal or two.

Dover in particular is a lost cause despite everything Gwen Prosser has done simply because the cowards who currently make up the Cabinet are too scared to 'grasp the nettle' for fear that the tabloids might call them nasty names and/or criticise their decisions. Something which they are going to do anyway.
