What is in a name?

Reading again this morning that the Conservative and Unionist Party are pressing ahead with their quest to have the name "Tory" dropped by broadcasters and having checked that it is no longer 1 April, I have assumed that they must be serious.

Having been through a similar identity crisis with the Alliance, the Social and Liberal Democrats (Salads) and numerous other variations, my advice to them is don't go there. Then again if you are going to sow confusion amongst the electorate, whilst at the same time attracting scorn and derision from your opponents, the beginning of a General Election campaign is as good a time to do it as any. I cannot wait for the publication of their manifesto!

It's sow confusion, not sew confusion .

You need to brush up on the difference between 'sew' and 'sow'. That's the second time in recent weeks you've got this wrong. And you're the education spokesperson?
 
Glad to see you've now amended it.
 
Fortunately I only have to deal with strategy and policy and not teach! I was in a hurry and didn't have time to check it. What can I say? :-))
