Meanwhile, on his Telegraph blog, Norman Tebbit analyses a new poll suggesting that voters are to the right of the government on spending cuts. In international politics, the Washington Post'sGeorge F Will explains why, for Obama, the worst result next month might be for the Democrats to retain control of both houses of Congress.
