Tory MP apologises for 'incompetent' Government In a letter to his local newspaper, the South Wales Argus, Mr Davies congratulated new councillors in Monmouthshire on their election. However, he continued: "May I also offer my apologies to those who feel the Conservative-led coalition has let them down. I must acknowledge there has been incompetence at the highest levels of government over the last few months in a number of departments. Meanwhile, there has been an emphasis on issues such as gay marriage and reform of the House of Lords, at the expense of explaining the financial situation; a failure to deport dangerous terrorists because of concerns about human rights; and an apparent unwillingness to listen to the concerns of electors and the backbench MPs who represent them. Mr Davies said he would have "no hesitation" in voicing his criticisms in Parliament. David Cameron has been warned by one outspoken MP that he could face a leadership challenge by Christmas. In the wake of last week's election results, a succession of backbench Tories called on the Prime Minister to adopt "more Conservative" policies, such as tax cuts and a referendum on Britain's relationship with Europe. On Tuesday, Mr Cameron and Nick Clegg attempted to re-affirm case for the coalition, almost two years since the power sharing project began with a sunlit press conference in the rose garden at Downing Street. They argued that the overriding task of the government remained to secure the economic recovery, warning that there was "no going back" on austerity measures.
