British bloggers!!I don't care if it's Saturday over there. I want commentary on this article from the Telegraph!

Poll defeat could mean a new name for Tories By Toby Helm, Chief Political Correspondent (Filed: 07/08/2004)

Senior members of Michael Howard's frontbench team believe the Conservative Party will have to consider changing its name as part of a fundamental "rebranding" if it fails to make a big surge at the next general election.

The idea of a realignment of Tory policies, capped by an "image revolution" and a new name, is being discussed by some in the shadow cabinet as a real option unless the Tories gain 70 to 80 seats.

Get some backbone, you girls! Make your party stand for something and you won't need a name change, for pity's sake. Make yourselves something more than Labour-lite! Do it for Churchill! I know you can do it. You have to.
