Just over a year ago the Daily Mirror was caught trying to infiltrate Caroline Spelman's office at Conservative Campaign HQ (story HERE ). It can be revealed tonight that Channel 4 has tried to do the same thing. Party workers discovered that a production assistant for the Dispatches programme – Jenny Williams (pic) - tried to infiltrate one of the party’s donor clubs. She paid a total of £334 to...

Most Conservatives agree that individual members of the shadow cabinet have seen little change in their share price this week. Caroline Spelman's opening speech was poorly received Unlike Labour in Manchester, where David Miliband made a fool of himself, Gordon Brown bought himself a bit more time, and Hazel Blears emerged as a serious f...

With conference now under way (following a rather underwhelming speech from Caroline Spelman - where has she been hiding of late?), I should perhaps report on our venue. To those of you who have not been to the International Convention Centre before, imagine a huge atrium, criss-crossed by gantries and walkways, staircases leading to countless mezzanine levels, escalators which bypass those stairs...

The race to succeed Caroline Spelman as chairman of the Conservative party is hotting up. In Cameroon circles her departure is talked about in terms of 'when' rather than if', even though an investigation by the parliamentary standards commissioner is still gathering evidence and is quite some way from concluding. A new name is emerging, I hear, as a serious contender and rival to the front-runner...

Plans to hold the first Cabinet meeting outside London for over 80 years was well trailed, not least by Labour Matters, so one would have thought the Conservatives would have been able to come up with better attack lines than they did. Caroline Spelman, the current Conservative Chairman, did her best on ITV by pointedly [...]

Today I have been back to The Haven in Rilstone Road, on the Welsh House Farm estate in Quinton doing more painting and decorating. Two rooms have had their new floors laid now and things are coming on although there is still more work to do. Amongst the visitors we have had at the Social Action project this weekend are Conservative Party Chairman Caroline Spelman MP who spent a couple of hours working...

Reading Political Hack's piece about Caroline Spelman's misuse of taxpayers money, I fell to wondering why she felt she had to abuse her position. Because she's not poor. According to the News of the World, she's worth £1.5million. So why the desire to filch money from the public purse? The NOTW article is interesting in other ways too. They point out that 19 of 29 of the Conservative shadow

Yesterday, Shadow Health Secretary Andrew Lansley gave a speech on a new public health strategy entitled ‘No excuses, no nannying’. Dreadfully thought out. The title of the speech I mean. Caroline Spelman must feel as if she’s under attack every day.
