ITV exclusive - Baroness Thatcher, with her usual candour, says of the Conservative performance: "It is not looking good enough, given the Tories' record and what we have done for this country". Ouch.
Asked if she thought Tony Blair was Thatcherite she replied "There was perhaps a tincture of it - but he was not really a Thatcherite, no". She held her fire on the Conservative campaign but again was underwhelmed by Michael Howard's efforts: "It is very difficult to be inspiring in this kind of campaign - when you are on the television very frequently and in the papers all the time - it is a different kind of campaign".
