It would have been a far less controversial statement to make about a year ago. Thats why its embarrassing for Dave for it to be heard now. That and someone from the 80's tory administration stating that the lucky-few-are-doing quite-nicely-thank-you. Building a firewall / collective amnesia between that kind of red-braces 80s tory and the cuddly new hug-a-polar-bear new tories of the noughties is exactly what Dave did to make the tories (very faintly) electable. Almost as soon as Dave was credited with having achieved it.... its all started to seep through again, and although he's very quick to cut others down for letting it happen, he's actually just as bad at doing it himself.
