Bernard Ingham wrote on Heseltine's 1986 resignation from the Cabinet earlier this week in the Yorkshire Post, linked here. Those who like me believe that the whole Heseltine saga is all part of a wider EU plot, and that the former Tarzan's huge elevation by Cameron has the potential to collapse the entire coalition should read the article in full. Others may rest content with Thatcher's former Press Sectretary's concluding paragraphs, quoted here:
So what was it all about? Did the flamboyant Heseltine spontaneously combust with frustration? Did he calculate that Thatcher was so weak – or could be so weakened after the "leak"– that she could be toppled just when the economy was coming right? Or, with an eye to the future, was he seeking martyrdom on the cross of Europe by an overbearing PM who "denied free discussion"?
These are nice questions. Tarzan, as he was called, is more complex than he looks. He cannot evade the charge of premeditation because he managed to cobble together a 20-minute 2,500-word press statement soon after his resignation. And who was instrumental eventually in bringing Thatcher down? Why, Heseltine at the prompting of another Eurofanatic, Sir Geoffrey Howe. And what was then the issue? Why, Europe – just like the Westland affair.
Cameron beware, lumbered as you are with a mainly Eurosceptic Conservative Party and Europhile Liberal Democrats. Europe haunted Thatcher and Major and tore at New Labour. It will try to sink its teeth into you, too. It dogs all governments.

Cameron's puppeteer finally comes out
The Wall Street Journal covers the emergence of Michael Heseltine from the shadows, read here.
Ever since the vapid, two-faced shyster Cameron emerged into the limelight of the upper echelons of the treacherous Tory party it was perfectly obvious that somebody far more senior and well-connected within Europe must be pulling his strings. This blog has hinted long and often that it was none other than the man who unseated Maggie Thatcher and took the reins from the traitor Edward Heath in driving our democracy to destruction. Three images show Heseltine's true colours, here with Blair and Clarke for Open Europe, here with his puppet and presently PM and here most fittingly dressed up as a soldier!
I emphasise the significance of the latter picture as only those of us who suffered the misfortune of beingeducated indoctrinated for any time in the boarding schools of Britain's public school system will recognise that the most sadistic and worthless of our contempories tended to rise to the upper ranks of their often compulsory cadet forces! The actual image of Heseltine, complete with swagger stick, that I recall as being so typical I cannot trace this morning but I will place it here if I come across it.
So the Conservative Party must this morning accept that it has been completely duped. Happily next Tuesday the perty can kick out the EU Bill sending Cameron and Heseltine to oblivion shortly thereafter, if they fail so to do than the voters of Oldham can show their own disgust accordingly.
