In reply to fred99:
Absolutely - there are a good few Tories who stand up for sincerely held beliefs. They're not all worms like Cameron, Johnson, Hunt, May, Hancock, Osborne, Gove, etc etc etc etc etc etc. Some, like Anne Widdecombe, are incredibly foolish but still deserve credit for their integrity. Others, like Ken Clarke, are absolute legends. I think Heseltine is a fundamentally decent man with heaps of integrity, these days at least.
I'm sure if I looked into the policies he was instrumental in when I was a kid I'd be appalled (as with Ken Clarke*), but now, let's give credit where it's due.
*It's not only Ken Clarke's political performance over the last decade or so that's bloody brilliant. It's his knowledge and appreciation of jazz music too.
