Where LR leads...
the FT follows.
Tabman wrote a piece on the Tories non-policy statement "Built to Last" the other day with the comment
what of this document’s title, “Built to Last�? Daniel Finkelstein sussed out its origin back in July – it’s also the title of a business management volume by Jim Collins written in 1994
.
Today´s FT leader starts
Built to Last is the title of a best-selling management book that analyses what makes a company succeed over the long term. It also happens to be the title of David Cameron's statement of principles, a mini-manifesto of where the leader of the Conservative party wants to take it.
The FT articulate the problem with the document
what the document does not offer is a framework to solve specific policy problems and dilemmas.
Not much of a narrative, in other words.
Do we have one? Hardly. Take the best part's of the conference agenda and you have the glimmerings of one. Perhaps Britain after Blair will take us further.
