|
Edward Stourton has been presenting the programme from the Conservative Party conference all this week. You can read his political diary below.
Sunday October 6th 2002
Rewinding the clock
"The ghosts of the big beasts of the past stalk Bournemouth, and names that were once to conjure with - Heseltine, Major, Clarke - fill the headlines once again."
Monday October 7th 2002
Taking them seriously
"Members of the Shadow Cabinet are remembered from the days when conferences were about behaving badly in black tie. Now they are pretending to be grown up."
Tuesday October 8th 2002
Drinking and partying
"Those who are still partying through the night are either gripped by the catatonia of the truly drunk or have talked their way back to sobriety and are curiously calm."
