Tim Montgomerie
THIS MONTH'S CONHOME POLL FINDS THAT TORY MEMBERS ARE INCREASINGLY UNHAPPY WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF SAYEEDA WARSI, CAROLINE SPELMAN AND KEN CLARKE. THERESA MAY CONTINUES TO IMPRESS, HOWEVER. SINCE THE ELECTION SHE HAS BEEN THE BIGGEST 'IMPROVER' OF CAMERON'S SHADOW CABINET.
The latest ConHome Cabinet league table confirms the strong positions enjoyed by IDS, the Chancellor, Eric Pickles, Michael Gove, William Hague and Theresa May. Mrs May's rise since the formation of the Coalition is particularly interesting. 79% of Tory members are satisfied with the Home Secretary and just 18% dissatisfied.
