Out-Torying the Tories?

So the Tories then were in favour of:

The national minimum wage?
The setting up of the Scottish & Welsh assemblies?
The setting up of the Greater London Assembly?
Massive injection of funds into Health, Education, Policing etc, etc?
Getting the unemployed and the unemployable into work?

This is a mere shortlist of achievement. The Tories were opposed to all the above hardly evidence for what you claim.
