For many years I enjoyed reading and listening to some brilliant conservative journalists. Iain Dale, Iain Martin, Tim Montgomery and Fraser Nelson. But for some unknown reason all that changed around 2019. The same thing happened with Andrew Neil a man I grew up watching, listening to and reading. With Mr Neil he went on about Boris who was a former employee and on top of that Mr Neil turned into a moan, whiny anti GB News critic. But back to the others, all of them hated Boris so were huge Boris critics, even though he had a massive 85 seat majority, they criticised him constantly, it was sheer hatred. Between them they had joined the anti tory bandwagon that our legacy media loved. In the end an insurrection within the tory party saw the demise of Boris, they quickly turned on Truss. Even though much of what Truss wanted to do has since been proved to be the right thing to do, and indeed the BoE proved to be the main issue and at fault for our stumbling economy. This didn’t seem to matter as these doyens of conservatism aimed their guns at Truss, a PM the party members voted for in huge numbers.
So thanks very much you so-called conservative voices, you actually moved from conservatism to one nation/libdemism You were a huge part of the reason the Conservative Party I
Has died, well done and I know you all hate Farage and Reform, but maybe if you had backed conservative voices who were drowned out when telling you what was about to happen. Priti Patel, Braverman, Jenrick, Kruger, Cates and JRM your party would still be in power. Shame on you all

A more conservative show for a change, well done. Probably because of the flack you received for arranging a party at the Labour Party Conference, how very New Labour of the speccy. Speaking of New Labour it would seem Agent Forsyth is doing a great job as Sunak is dying, the tories are dying, the civil service is now a full blown Labour activist organisation. The NHS is goosed, waiting lists are huge, no housing being built, mass immigration is over a million per year and stopping the boats is a joke as we now have 25,000 landed to far this year, excess deaths are obviously now way worse than killed the elderly and infirm from Covid, the education sector is now full of labour activists, the so called culture wars are lost. Oh and well done Spectator for getting rid of 2 elected PMs in favour of James’s schoolmate who is useless
