It seems that my decision in 2012 to renew my Conservative membership was right. The party is headed in the right direction and David Cameron has a good chance of remaining PM at the next General Election due in 2015 if he sticks on his current course and is strong-willed in the image of the late Baroness Thatcher.

So Nicolas Maduro, successor of Hugo Chavez, has won a narrow victory in Venezuela's presidential poll? Yeah right! Allied predicted this “result” some months back here.

Allegedly Mr Maduro won 50.7% of the vote against 49.1% for opposition candidate Henrique Capriles. The Venezuelan electronic voting system has already been declared open to fraud by even Jimmy Carter. It’s been used again for pro Chavez party votes.

It has taken the best part of four long years.

For victims like me, Nadine Dorries MP, Anne Milton MP, Jonathan Lord MP, the minister Jeremy Hunt MP, Patrick Mercer MP, the broadcaster Iain Dale, the journalist Dennis Rice and the top blogger in the British Isles, Paul Staines (AKA Guido Fawkes), these four years have been years during which Tim Ireland has caused us extensive distress and pain.
