The Conservatives are back, and back with a bang two election wins
in a row and, providing they can hold things together, in a pretty
good position to win another. But many questions about their recent
past, present, and future still remain. Just why did the world's
oldest and most successful political party dump Margaret Thatcher
only to commit electoral suicide under John Major? And what stopped
the Tories getting their act together until David Cameron came
along? Did Cameron change his party as much as he sometimes liked
to claim, or did his leadership, both in opposition and in
government, involve more compromise - and more Conservatism than we
realize? Finally, what does the result of the EU referendum mean
for the Party in years to come? The answers, as this accessible and
gripping book shows, are as intriguing and provocative as the
questions. Based on in-depth research and interviews with the key
players, Tim Bale explains how and why the Tories lost power in
1997 and how and why they have eventually been able to rediscover
their winning ways, even if internal tensions and external
challenges mean they still can't take anything for granted.
Crucial, he suggests, are the people, the power structures, the
ideas, and the very different interests of those involved. This
second edition of The Conservative Party: From Thatcher to
Cameronis a must-read for anyone wanting to understand what makes
the Tories tick.
