		<description><![CDATA[Last week, the Localism Bill was passed into law. I was glad to support its passage.  Through 13 years of New Labour, we witnessed continual moves towards centralised planning and micro-managing of our everyday lives.

For the moment, this speaks for itself and to the nature of the Blair government, but I&#8217;m looking forward to the eventual report ]]></description>

As a Historian, I welcome the Education Secretary&#8217;s announcement at conference today that History, as a discipline, will be at the core of the curriculum. For too long, Labour had been allowed to reduce the significance of our history, preferring to re-write it or worse simply ignoring ]]></description>

In the first place, Labour plan their own substantial cuts. More to the point, Labour&#8217;s spending was funded not by sustainable ]]></description>
