GIVE ME WEB CAMERAS OR GIVE ME DEATH

“David Cameron’s call yesterday for the Conservative party to build its foundations on the centre ground was badly jolted on the opening day of the Tory conference when he faced a growing grassroots revolt demanding tax cuts.” The Guardian, Monday, October 2

Give me web cameras or give me death
give me a home in the centre ground
give me a chance to connect with the world
give me a chance to stick around

give me optimism, give me no tax cuts yet
give me a high five, give me space
give me web cameras or give me death
give me a few more months of grace

give me no rebellion, give me backbench calm
give me time to stake my claim
give me a chance to steal Blair’s trousers
give me green policies, give me fame

give me a bicycle, give me immigrants
give me scope to reform the Tories
give me web cameras or give me death
give me access to other men’s glories

give me cappuccino conservatism
give me the New Labour Thatcher-filter
Give me a rough ride in conference
and I’ll show you a party out of kilter.

Give me a happy Britannia,
give me smiley faces. Let sunshine win the day
David Cameron’s got his hat on
and is coming out to play.
