Abstract
David Cameron’s current trouble with his party over Europe is increasingly being compared with that of his predecessors. Tim Bale argues that while comparisons with previous Conservative leaders can be helpful, the modern Conservative party must resist the urge to continually look to the past, and seek to build its own narrative and solutions to problems it now faces.
