Publisher's Synopsis
This is the story of how public opinion became steadily more accepting and progressive, and how the Tories caught up at last, but it is also a human story. As the Conservative Party has finally embraced the concept of equal rights and become a haven of tolerance, it is fascinating not only to consider the fortunes of the new generation of high-flying, openly gay Tory politicians, but also to look back and consider the careers - that were blighted - and the lives that were wrecked - by the intolerance of earlier generations.
