Résumé:How do Conservative politicians strive to communicate with and influence the electorate? Why have some proven more effective than others in advancing their positions and ideological agendas?

The individuals featured are Stanley Baldwin, Winston Churchill, Harold Macmillan, Iain Macleod, Enoch Powell, Keith Joseph, Margaret Thatcher, Michael Heseltine, John Major, William Hague, Boris Johnson and David Cameron.
