Hague's Progress: How Far Have The Tories Come, And Where Are They Going
Two years have now passed since William Hague was elected leader of the Conservative Party, in the immediate aftermath of the 1997 election defeat. It has certainly been a period of considerable change for the Tories, with the organisation having to grapple with the unfamiliar day-to-day role of being a party of opposition rather than of government.

EMU: Sceptics Still Ahead
Our latest MORI poll suggests that the trend
in public opinion continues to move against EMU entry. The balance of opinion
against EMU (that is, those opposed less those in favour) in July is similar
to the peak at the time of the mid-June EU election, and well above the levels
