Reports from the front line indicate a mutiny in the heady upper echelons of the Opus Dave Cadet Force, also known as Conservative Future UK (CFUK).
Evidently, there was an attempt to hold a vote of no-confidence in Deputy Chairman Caroline Hunt at the last meeting, one of the reasons being that she’s rumoured to be “intimate” *ahem* with new National Chairman Nick Vaughan, which some saw as a conflict of
interest. She also seems to have upset some Tory students, which Recess Monkey thinks should be an Olympic sport, not grounds for censure.
I’m informed that the axis against this woman who has the temerity to be more senior than some perfectly acceptable men, is made up of Dan Large, Andrew Young and Jonathan Ash-Edwards.
Here’s a picture of the whole Opus Dave Cadets Force together, with David Cameron a few days ago. You have to admire the way they keep their smiles despite having daggers protruding from their backs.
This never would have happened if Annesley Abercorn had won National Chairman…

From the group photo it’s good to see that they are now stretching across the ethnic divide from those who holiday in SE Asia to those who holiday in the Carribean.

Was this at the victory party, by any chance? DC looks like he’s embracing Britain’s new modern drinking culture… at least, he certainly looks tired and emotional.

I’m worried CFUK has been infiltrated by evil Sith lords, Andrew Young displays dangerous characteristics, but he is too young to be the Master. Could it be there is a Sith Lord already in a position of power waiting to become Chancellor/PM etc?

I dunno about your analysis Retard Donkey, Nick Vaughan doesn’t appear to be smiling in the picture with DC. Is it because he’s stood next to Roland from Grange Hill?

Eskimo Nell. As you can see from the two photographs, Nick Vaughan suffers from an unfortunate facial disfigurement and I don’t think it’s right for you to make fun of him because of it.

Annesley Abercorn update.
[I have photos Recess, send beer and you can have ‘em]
At the Royal Academy coronation of Cameron some weeks ago for the photocall showing Blair-like Cameron and his missus coming down the stairs you can see our hero in some shots.
Discretely emissaries of DC had been pulling photogenic young non-pinstripe, non twinset Tories out of the crowd for the key photo-op. They were all dressed as regular members of the human race.
All of a sudden a pinstripe clad coat wearing Abbercorn dressed in a style which I can only describe as “1950’s country solicitor” pushed through the throng of photographers waiting for DC to descend and positioned himself at the front of the photo-op.
His tallness obscuring the girls and boys carefully assembled by the DC spin-merchants.
Abbercorn presented a problem - his skin colour meant that the spin merchants dare not tell him to piss off. Yet he looked all wrong - 50s retro instead of Young Cameron. How to get him out of photo-shot without the 80 photographers noticing the only dark person being removed…?
Everybody understood what had just happened including AA. But he was standing firm, ignoring the dilemma, he wanted his picture taken. Finally the spin-merchant tells everyone to move forward down the staircase 5 steps. AA and a few other collateral-damage Cameroonies are now out of, or on the periphery of the picture. DC emerges. Flashes go off, the Six O’Clock news does not feature AA looming in front of DC.

the ginger one with the red eye looks the scariest. Maybe the lack of diversity is down to the fact that the CF (sounds to much like NF for my liking) operates a policy of positive negative discrimination:
i.e.
“We positively don’t want any ‘colored folk’ Cleytus”

Having met alot of CF’ers and been to a lot of CF events, I can proudly say I have never met such a dreadful group of people.
A wonderful example, a certain Miss Hilly. On record somewhere she announces she favours Ken Clarke for leader. When asked on the Daily Politics right after Davis’ speech she says how the speech turned her totally off him and she now likes Cameron.
And no doubt she will appear in Cameron’s A List!

I am concerned that you would use your weblog to make such a callous calculating attack on my charachter.
Your blog also maligns the good name of my friend Caroline Hunt. I think it unreasonable that, as you suggest, she should have to kowtow to students.
Her relationship with the chairman may be slightly embarrassing but there has obviously been a confusion between her right to overrule junior members of the exec and her being the girlfriend of the Chairman.
Annesley Abercorn said this on December 19th, 2005 at 4:48 pm
That’s strange. You say you’re Annesley - but your IP address identifies you as someone completely different. Funny that.
Furthermore - not sure I have maligned anyone’s name in this piece, least of all that of Ms Hunt. And why is it that her relationship should be any more embartrassing to her than to Nick Vaughan?
Chauvanists the lot of you!

I have to say that CF executive appears to be run by exactly the kind of people I don’t want in the Conservative Party. People that can afford to get to all the events because Daddy pays their way and also enjoy a spot of backstabbing. These people don’t care about Politics, they just want power. Trust me, I know some of them. Typical of these people is a certain Paul Bristow whose cavalier style made me want to kick his head in.

funny how this guy wouldn’t make his comments known to Bristow face.
Obviously he feels far more secure mouthing off over the net…..
