The Conservative Party After Brexit, Prof Tim Bale’s new book on the recent history of the governing party, suggests that it has lost its way.When the Independent's political columnist spoke to Bale, he pointed out that since the referendum the party has increasingly taken to posing as the defender of the people against the elites. However, at the same time it has tried to avoid the "logical correlative" of such a strategy - "namely, a more redistributive economic nationalism".
