Tories hit roof over Journal asking questions
My story in The Journal today about the "blanks" in David Cameron's policies seem to have hit a raw nerve in the Tory party.
I am told that Andy Coulson - the leader's chief spin master - hit the roof when he heard about the story.
But how about an interview with Mr Cameron to spell out his plans? It seems you are too busy to be worried about the North East...
And conference attendees have been issued with an edict to be on their best behaviour.
Well, guys. I don't think you are going to like tomorrow's paper.

It's good in a way that you have abandoned any attempt at impartiality.....that way we know to take everything you write with a pinch of salt!
However, the threats are a bit unnecessary and strike a bit of a sour note. Politics doesn't really have to nasty, you know.
