This is well worth reading though it is long. John O'Sullivan who has made his appearance on this blog before
here,
here and
here, has written a sort of end of term analysis of conservatism in the Anglosphere on NRO. Looking at the situation in the US, Australia, Canada and Britain (though not New Zealand, which would have been interesting) he comes to the unsurprising conclusion that conservatism is in worst shape of all in this country.
A very good link. The comments on O'Sullivan;s piece are worthwhile,too. As for Cameron, he was chosen by the Tory rank and file,no? Do they really stand for anything?
