How did the Tories become the chaos party?

From The Bunker – News without the nonsense Podmasters

The Conservative Party was once a unified force, able to steadily maintain power. But today’s Tories are in constant turmoil. How did they become the party of chaos? Since Brexit there’s been a revolving door of leaders, the rise of tribalism within the party and a series of humiliating byelection losses. Alex Andreou is joined by professor of politics at Queen Mary University Tim Bale to try and understand this shift in conservative politics.

• “Everything that top Tories say needs to be considered as part of their future leadership contest.” – Tim Bale

• “Without Brexit, we wouldn't have seen the turmoil that we've seen over the last decade.” – Tim Bale
