The Mainly Dale, freshly briefed by his hosts from his recent trip to Israel, has come out 100% for Israel’s actions, publishing many of the points from Conservative Friends of Israel’s briefing.
He thinks “it’s a shame” that William Hague, amongst other things, deeply regretted the loss of civilian life in Gaza and that Hague called on the Israeli government to show restraint.
It’s all kicking off in the comments.
Next week – Iain Dale gets a freebie from Easyjet, The Mainly Dale changes colour scheme to orange in appreciation and campaigns for the airline to use thousands of unemployed laid side by side as mobile runways.

Yes, I know there are different ‘Pravdas’ but the context in which the articles are used clearly show that there are few limits to The Conservatives’ use of the mantra :
‘My enemy’s enemy is my friend.’

Update 2: The Tories have now (really) produced a videotape of the police search of Damian Green’s Parliamentary office. As far as I can see it does nothing but keep the kettle lukewarm.

What with the ‘Zanu Labour’ and ‘Stalinesque’ attacks and now this non-exposé, the Tories are unintentionally making themselves look desperate and panicked when, I suppose, they intend their campaign to have this effect on the government.

Now it’s starting to look if they really have something they want to bury and are keen for any investigation to be curtailed.

Update:
Here’s a cropped version of yesterday’s image for Channel 4 News.

(btw – despite what it says on C4 News, it’s an image not an animation)

Morten Morland has created an image along similar lines but much classier here.

Hopefully a new image on the same topic a bit later on C4 News.

Update:
I’ve created an animated version (not too happy with the static image.)

Over HERE on CentreRight

Concerned about censorship by the Daily Mail and the likes of Peter Whittle at CentreRight, I thought it best to help disseminate some of the material they may think unacceptable, purely in the interests of research.
It took a while to think up the name for the blog, but I finally decided on a title which would be descriptive and therefore serve as a warning for those of a nervous disposition.

You can see the first two posts on Princess Diana and Margaret Thatcher here on my new site Blue Blog.
Please note – Language warning! (visible and audible)

UPDATE : I must admit there has been quite a debate on the Tory website, some disgusted (or feigning disgust) about a joke about the Queen, some for essentially continuing an attack on the BBC post Brand&Ross and others arguing vociferously against it. One or two seem to be harking back to the good old days. I don’t think it will be long before someone demands the return to black and white and 405 lines.

A quick animated version of the picture below.
