Letter: Who will champion the lost leader?

Sir: On 22 November 1990, you kindly published a letter from me in which I stated that if the Conservative Party were to so unfairly depose Margaret Thatcher, within a short space of time there would be car stickers all over the country proclaiming 'Come back Maggie - all is forgiven]'

As a result of the efforts of her manifestly inferior successors in recent months and weeks, I suggest that as the members of the Conservative Party gather for their conference this week a great many of them will be ruefully harbouring that very thought. But who among them will issue the first trumpet call?

Yours sincerely,
