Is Dennis Skinner the real face of the Labour Party?

The future of the left?

No, of course he isn't.

But the fact that all parties contain a broad spectrum of opinion did not stop Labour List yesterday from strongly implying that the fact that a few MPs on the extreme right of the Tory party have published an Alternative Queen's Speech must somehow mean that those few are "the real face of the Tory party".

LL then highlights three policies that this AQS called for:

• the banning of the burka
• abolishing the Department of Energy and Climate Change
• bringing back the death penalty

I think we can solve this one quite quickly by just totting up how many of those are official Conservative Party policy.

That's right, none.

QED.
