I am a biographer. These are my thoughts on a number of topics: my role as chair at Lincoln Drill Hall and of the Lincoln Book Festival. I also write on the plight of refugees, the EU and book reviews. My other blogs http://williamsmithwilliams.co.uk talk about my biography of William Smith Williams who was first to recognise the genius of Charlotte Bronte and http://www.philwilliamswriter.co.uk about my books on how the army was supplied in the world wars, Ordnance and War on Wheels

Vince Cable
Monday's Guardian (27 October 2008) offers an appropriate reminder that the LibDems' treasury spokesman did make warning noises about house prices and the level of personal debt. The point remains though that it was in no one's interests to do so. A parallel is drawn of the other voice in the wilderness before WW2. Again, what incentive did Churchill have and were we really so surprised that government sought to shake him off. It is the problem of the status quo - it works in the short term, so why rock it?
