The Tories are in some serious trouble and they need to do something fast.  It is a dying party and needs to evolve.  When I was in the UK I met many people, who had they been born in the U.S., would probably be Republicans.  However, due to the class  they were born in, ethnicity etc. they were Lib Dems or Labourites.  As an outside observor, it seems to me that the Toires have pidgeonholed themselves into a minority party and they better start coming up with some ideas to differentiate themselves or they will remain a minority party.

The collapse of working class Toryism is one of the most unreported trends of the last 30 odd years.

It seems to me that the Tories and Repubs are on opposite tracks.  Whereas, the Tories are losing favo(u)r with the working class, the Republcans have been picking up a sizeable portion of it.  The Tories need to find a wedge issue;)
