About our Conservative Party news

Latest news on Conservative Party (UK), tracking Britain's main centre-right political party under leader Kemi Badenoch, covering policy, polls, elections, and Tory MPs.

The Conservative and Unionist Party, commonly known as the Conservative Party or Tories, is one of Britain's two main political parties. With a history spanning 190 years and having produced 20 prime ministers, it has shaped British politics through periods of significant change, recently governing from 2010 to 2024.

Following a significant defeat in the July 2024 general election that saw the party reduced to 121 seats - its lowest total ever - the Conservatives elected Kemi Badenoch as their new leader on 2 November 2024. Under her leadership, the party aims to rebuild and renew while in opposition, focusing on economic liberalism, British unionism, and centre-right policies.

Local Conservative associations form the backbone of the party's grassroots organisation, with a membership of around 131,680 as of November 2024. The party maintains strong connections with various affiliated groups, including the Young Conservatives, Conservative Women's Organisation, and LGBT+ Conservatives, reflecting its efforts to broaden its appeal across different demographics.

From its origins as the Tory Party in 1834, through Benjamin Disraeli's One Nation conservatism, Margaret Thatcher's free-market reforms, and David Cameron's modernisation efforts, the Conservative Party has evolved significantly. The party's recent history has been marked by Brexit, which reshaped British politics and the party's position on European integration.

Our NewsNow feed provides comprehensive coverage of Conservative Party developments, drawing from reliable sources to keep you informed about policy announcements, parliamentary debates, local election results, and internal party dynamics. Whether you're interested in political analysis, polling data, or constituency-level developments, this feed offers timely updates on Britain's oldest political party.
