"Guido Understands that..."
Nick Robinson tonight on the Ten O'Clock News will say that "the BBC understands that.." David Cameron intends to give a Statement of Principles tomorrow. This may be spun as the "almost Clause 4 moment". The Conservative party membership will be called upon to vote on it. This will face down right-wing critics with a "the membership backs change" definitive verdict. The old right headbangers will be buried.
Sorry to spoil the scoop Nick.

Big deal. Neil Kinnock had his aims and values statement in 1988. So just another 9 years to go before the Tories have a chance.
We don't have to pay Guido the licence fee.
The statement looks like a good basis for the future.
what is truly scary about the document are the photos of the Tory front bench. Not a clause 4 moment I'm afraid, anyone can sign up for Apple Pie. Clause 4 caused real soul-searching in the Labour Party.
Don't worry about scooping Dave, I think he will be grateful for all the publicity he can get for this stunt.
Never thought I would vomit on mom's apple pie!
This thing has flopped already. So much for Steve Hewitt's genius. Cameron is beginning to look ropey.
