NeverEnding Tory: How come the Conservatives keep getting elected?

Despite endless scandals and psychodramas, the Tories keep getting into power. So why are the British obsessed with the Conservative Party? And will we ever get rid of them? Seth Thevoz is joined by Samuel Earle, author of Tory Nation: How One Party Conquered Britain, to ask how one party came to dominate our political imagination.

• “The election numbers seem more like a rigged casino than a functional democracy.” — Samuel Earle
• “The House of Lords seems to go against the grain of a liberal democratic society, yet it’s still here.” — Samuel Earle
• “Conservatives don’t like to see themselves as ideological people.” — Samuel Earle.
