Our new MPs: young, but more interested in trivia than rebellion

Article Abstract:

The general election in the UK in May 1997 saw the appointment of 250 new MPs out of a total of 660, and it seemed that House of Commons reform would be a priority. However, the new MPs have proved to be no more interested in reform than their predecessors. They have many complaints about existing House of Commons procedures, but there are no signs of a radical, reforming movement. They give high priority to loyalty and compliance, and do not feel that it is appropriate to criticize leading members of their party.

The Tory Party piranha

Article Abstract:

UK Conservative party Treasurer Michael Ashcroft attracts mixed views. He has gained acceptance in some parts of the upper levels of society in London, England, but some observers regard his business dealings with suspicion. In political terms, he is still something of an enigma. He is clearly a free-marketeer, but associates state that beyond this he merely supports the policies of Conservative party leader William Hague.
