Some of these comments are amusing and Iain Dale, he of the freedom of the internet fame, has graciously left comment moderation off. I suspect the censors pencil will be out shortly to delete some comments.

We need more capacity, but I can't understand why everyone is wedded to Heathrow, other than certain people with vested interests. Yes a feasibility study does have to be done on a new hub airport such as Boris Island. Heathrow is a lousy place for an airport - too close to a major population centre, too cramped to be easily expandable. Both Gatwick and Stansted are more pleasant to use. Heathrow also has poor public transport connections from anywhere other than London, which is no good for the major "national" airport, and the road connections are via the over capacity M3 and M25. Yes of course we need to start thinking out of the box. And think how much housing could be built on Heathrow if and when it can be closed.

Dammit, I posted that on the wrong thread. Can it be deleted? I'll copy it to the right one.

Oh nooooo - freedom and the internet in the graveyard slot - at least you can talk without notes and it's an interesting subject. Count the number of slumberers - one hopes there's a few - nay one demands!!

Another tough day at the "coal Face" but if you get a minute can you make enquiries in the area to see if there are any plans to bring back "Crossroads" many thanks.
freedom to prosper
PS Why not ban aeroplanes as this would help the ship building industry?

Loved the defence debate.

When the Tories roll out Simon Weston you know that you are in trouble - scrapping the bottom of the barrel.

Get Thatcher's cannon fodder on the podium to spout a load of c**p. Funny how Thatcher's favoured cannon fodder didn’t fire a single shoot in combat - but is some how a hero.

Further more he was ranting on about military funding. Didn’t all the Brit troops in the Falklands arrived on hastily commissioned white cunnard liners, because we had no proper transport ships.

Iain, your lack of self-awareness is staggering. You stick that photo of yourself at the top of your blog and then have the nerve to say "I have a fringe today".

Good to see Guido at Conference, even speaking at a Tory event.

That will be Gudio the Irish citizen, who doesn't live in the UK, or pays any tax in the UK, but makes his living in the UK via his Irish operation ...

Good job his skin is white or you lot would be going mental.

All true. Typical Tory Guido contributes nothing but complains about everything.

I'm awaiting your summary of the fringe meeting with David Davis with interest.

Overall a good man, whose absence from the Shadow Cabinet weakens Cameron's stance against the novice charge.

P.S. I don't think the Conservative's BofE plan stands up to scrutiny, but then again neither does Bush's (not enough money to do its stated aim). As for Gordon's plan - there are not enough expletives on the keyboard to describe it.

This is the final straw for this pathetuc, morally bankrupt Labour so-called "government", you mark my words.

The British public are thirsting for a Conservative government - one which will give them their country back.

*****************

I'M AFRAID NOT.

Guido fawkes aka Paul Staines is an Irish Citizen, with an Irish passport, whose home address and business address are listed in the Irish republic. He may have another London address, like many foreign business people, but that does not make him a UK citizen. FACT

Such is the level of thirst for a Conservative government across Britain, EVERY seat will be a safe Tory seat at the next election as this corrupt, laughable Labour so-called "government"is wiped out entirely.

Doesn't it, therefore, logically follow that he must know what he's talking about?

Guido... Oh dear

Do the Tories really need to associate with this twat.

He whines about freedoms and restrictions, his pet hate; but try and post an anti guido or none Tory post on his Moderated blogg. Fucking hypocrite

He claims to have uncovered many political scoops, but it then later transpired that the press knew before him, he just was quicker to post. He is also a convicted DD no insurance, and a self confessed Acid head.

And previous posts are correct , he isn't even a British citizen

Sunday evening defense dedate at Conference. Simon Weston, the US special relationship, the fall of the berlin wall; these were the big talking points... How so 1980's is that. The Falklands was 26 years ago, cannon fodder simon was injured 26 years ago, for this to spearhead your dedate shows that you are living in your typical vitiolic past

No, I think we will judge Iain by his enemies, and from the way that Dolly's trolls are spewing bile here, I'd say Iain was just fine.
