A Vote of Confidence for DC

An article today in The Times gives a great picture for our future success. Whilst Labour stumble with a £23 million debt and a cash-for-honours scandal that has dried up loans and donations the Conservatives have had a boom year!

Through Party loans, the different donor clubs (including making £500,000 on one dinner with DC at Blenheim Palace) and the soon sale of the old Party headquarters (at around £30 million) the Conservative Party books are looking good. The sale of the old headquarters alone will give them around £13.5 million in profit, which could leave them with only having to pay off £2.5 million in loans.

This shows both a vote of confidence in DC and leaves us in a much better position to fight the next General Election. Labour with huge debts, donors wanting there loans back and no new cash since the scandal will be hard pushed to call an election anytime soon!

Also out today is a ConservativeHome survey, which has 71% of the grassroots satisfied with David Cameron. Things are looking up!
