	John Biffen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		William John Biffen, Baron Biffen, PC (born 3 November 1930), is a Conservative member of the House of Lords.
		He served in Mrs Thatcher's government in the successive positions of Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Secretary of State for Trade, and as Leader of the House of Commons.
		His blunt public call for greater moderation in policy when he was called upon to respond to the government's loss in two by-elections in 1986, alienated him from Mrs Thatcher and resulted in his being dropped from the cabinet after the 1987 General Election.

	Guardian \| C-charge protest does not check out
		John Lewis stepped up its campaign against London's congestion charge yesterday by publishing independent research which concluded that the £5-a-day fee for motorists had cut sales at its Oxford Street store by 5.5% last year.
		It is tempting to suggest that John Lewis is raging against London's congestion charge because the partnership is run by a bunch of Tories.
		John Lewis's own research found a modal shift among its customers, with the proportion taking public transport up from 78% to 84% - exactly what the charge was meant to achieve.

	Labour is really new, admits Biffin
		John Biffen, a former Leader of the House and a prominent Tory intellectual, writes in today's Tribune newspaper that Tony Blair's modernisation of the party is substantial and well-calculated.
		Turning on his own Government, Mr Biffen says its economic policies have been "ill-starred and disastrous in their political reckoning" and are likely to lead to firm defeat in the election.
		Mr Biffen accepts as genuine Mr Brown's claims to have shed Labour's "tax and spend" image, saying it is now difficult to see the difference between the two parties on economic policies.
