This blog has commented upon Tory splits over the Estuary Airport before; one may remember a Chairman of a Chatham Conservative branch or club that wrote on the Medway Messenger website that the local Conservatives were wrong to oppose a referendum.
I have also spoken and blogged on a number of Peninsula Councillors who are backing Boris instead of backing Hoo.
Bullingdon BoJo is the primary actor behind any bid for an airport on the Peninsula and was up until May 2010 the most powerful Conservative in office across the UK. He has a huge influence and sway in the grass-roots Tory party and he is targeting the Hoo Peninsula for the biggest slab of concrete in living memory.
If Boris looses in May; the pipedream of the airport will die. Simple
As this blog has exposed and will continue to expose: for any Tory locally to be backing this harbinger of destruction for our local community is to show total contempt for the area for the sake of partisan posturing.
I have held my suspicions that we observe a number of two-faced Tories in our local blue-rinse brigade, but up until now many have been careful to tip-toe on the grey line. Attacking Ken but witholding fawning loyalty to Boris.
It therefore came as surprise that last night, according to reports, that Cllr Rodberg - a Peninsula Councillor no less - endorsed the Estuary Airport against the apparent position of his own party, own Association and own group on the Council.
All the residents on the Peninsula know that Tories are being two-faced. For one to step out and be honest about it is to be applauded but also lambasted. Applauded for highlighting the truth to the charge of Conservative duplicity and how they can never ever be trusted; lambasted because he, like the other blue-rinsers on the Peninsula, cant have it both ways.
They either back Hoo or back Boris. What do they want?
