| | Conservative Party (UK) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Conservative modernisers point to Afriyie's election as evidence that the party is changing, though opponents argue that the election of a single black MP doesn't count for much against the perceived right-wing anti-immigrant campaign fought by the Conservatives in 2005. | | | Though the Conservatives were considered to be the dominant governing party in the United Kingdom for much of the 19th and 20th Centuries, since losing the 1997 election to the Labour Party under Tony Blair, they have been in 'opposition' in Parliament. | | | Anticipating the growing euroscepticism within his party, John Major negotiated a British opt-out from the single currency in the 1992 Maastricht Treaty, although several members of Major's cabinet (Kenneth Clarke, Michael Heseltine, Stephen Dorrell) were personally supportive of EMU participation. |

| | UK Conservative Party, Overview |
| | In 1975, Margaret Thatcher, the first woman who became leader of a major political party in Britain, ousted Heath followers from key party posts and declared that state involvement in social and economic matters had to be decreased. | | | From October of 1963 to October of 1964, Alec Douglas-Home headed the British government after Conservative Primer Minister Harold Mcmillan (1957 to 1963) resigned due to health reasons. | | | In February of 1974, a miner's strike caused Heath to call a general election in the hope of strengthening the government's mandate. |

| | New Labour, after all, was the creation of an outer cabal of party agents and backbenchers as well as the inner cabal of Brown and Blair, Mandelson and Campbell. | | | It decided that the Times journalist Michael Gove would be its candidate for this safest of Tory seats at the next general election. | | | The cohesion embraces Liam Fox as a party chairman with a decidedly them-and-us view of the political world - "them", in his case, meaning most Tory MPs. |
