The last true blue blood

Article Abstract:

The family of Conservative peer Viscount Cranborne has played a very significant role in politics in the UK in the 20th century. Viscount Cranborne himself has shown considerable talent for not making enemies and has been popular across the Conservative party. However, he has never quite fulfilled the potential of his instincts and abilities. He has many conservative instincts, but has also shown that he is willing to go against convention.
