News Release

30th October

"A VISION OF HELL"

"Iain Duncan Smith said to Conservative MPs yesterday that the last 6 weeks have been a vision of hell for him. I think I know how he feels", says Michael Fabricant. "The last few weeks have been a nightmare for all decent Conservative MPs and for party workers.

"When Iain spoke to us this afternoon, he did so with real passion. He has improved so much over the last few weeks; if only he had been like this 6 months ago, all this blood letting would never have happened. I am desperately sad at his passing. I hope that all the positive changes and exciting policies announced at the Party Conference, yet overshadowed by talk of disloyalty, will be kept in place together with the key management at Conservative Central Office.

"Sadly, It is now essential that we put this ballot behind us and move swiftly onto finding a new Leader of the Opposition. I welcome tonight's news that David Davis and others will support Michael Howard as Leader of the Conservative Party. I hope that other candidates will now think twice before standing against this team. It would be quite awful if the Party had to endure two months of paralysis selecting a Leader when such a powerful and broad team is already in place. They have my support. I hope the Parliamentary Party can now unite behind them and begin to provide real opposition to this Labour Government which has failed to deliver on its promises."
