No I cannot write a history but I am wondering about this question:
If Gordon Brown is correct and there are enough helicopters in Afghanistan, then why is Bob Ainsworth busting a gut trying to get more out there.

David Melding, Tory Welsh Assembly Members writes well about Conservative History in his book Will Britain survive beyond 2020? maybe you could ask him if he's got a spare hour or two to lend to you :)

I read this as 'is it possible to write about Conservative History?' ANd I thought, 'I shitting hope so... my dissertation's on conservative history!' I was terrified the omniscient Mr Dale would pull the rug from under my thesis!

What is conservative history though? Sounds to me like a type of Macauleyism with history going along a path to an inevitable conclusion in favour of conservatism. A history of conservatism I can get, but conservative history is strange.
