Writing in the Evening Standard, editor (and former Chancellor of the Exchequer under Cameron) George Osborne found it to be "one of the very best" political memoirs, saying "His book has been so hard for him to write. It's been a kind of purgatory for him, motivated by a sense of duty that Prime Ministers should explain why they did what they did, for the record. It's why it is so good." He clarified "I'm not neutral as Cameron is my friend." [16] Lansley was a fantasist. He promised patients, “no decision about me without me”, but gave patients no say in running his local commissioning apparatus. Besides, how could they choose the NHS if Virgin, Circle or Serco was running a service? “Liberating the NHS”, the title of the 2010 white paper, turned out to give the central healthcare regulator, Monitor, a remit to enforce commercial competition. The chairmanship of Monitor was taken by a former Tory health minister. At the head of the Care Quality Commission arrived another Tory, former MP David Prior. Sir Malcolm Grant, who in 2011 was appointed chair of NHS England, said he didn’t use the NHS himself.The group’s directors and shareholders voted to place the company into voluntary winding up and appoint liquidators to realise the group’s assets, including shares in its subsidiaries.

When Conservative MPs discuss the next general election, they frequently assert that they “deserve to win”. They believe that their record merits the parliamentary majority they failed to secure in 2010. Such is the conviction with which they state their achievements – the halving of the deficit, a record number in employment, the highest-ever level of GDP – that even non-Tories are prone to ask whether the government’s opponents have exaggerated its defects. The Guardian 's Jonathan Freedland said that the book "reminds you why Cameron dominated British politics for so long. The prose is, like him, smooth and efficient. There are welcome splashes of colour." [14] Established in 1985, GCGL provides head office functions including IT, HR and finance services, to various subsidiaries in the construction, facilities management and related industries.

Not even the Conservatives had the chutzpah to claim credit for saving the Union but they showed no such hesitancy in other cases, treating failures as acts of God and successes as their own work. The economy exceeded its pre-recession peak but only after years of stagnation, leaving GDP per capita well below its previous level. Creditors of Camerons were invited to a meeting in Jersey last week where the Jersey business went into liquidation and the complex financial position was outlined.
