After 11 years in power, not even the Left could deny that Margaret Thatcher changed the face of British politics. This book examines the face of Toryism today. The author looks below the surface of the Saatchi & Saatchi image to examine the people who make up the basis of the Conservative Party - the fund-raisers, the campaign managers and the local team helpers and all those who are involved in the cake-stalls, raffles and dinner-dances to raise money.
