Abstract

Despite Theresa May being called a ‘Red Tory’ following the publication of the 2017 manifesto, the pledges do not mark a rupture with the conservatism of recent decades, argues Richard Hayton. Here he explains what went into the manifesto, what was notably left out, and why the document will occupy and reshape the centre ground of British politics.
