RSA ThursdayLifting the lid on the most compelling story in British politics today, political journalist Peter Snowdon charts the Conservative Party's remarkable journey from the political wilderness to the threshold of power. After obtaining unprecedented access to key figures in the party, including every leader from John Major to David Cameron, Peter Snowdon visits the RSA to bring new light to bear on the dramatic decline and renaissance of the party that dominated 20th century British politics. As we move closer to the election and the strong prospect of a changing of the guard, this is a fascinating time to consider how a political party may be re-shaped by a period in opposition. Packed full of fresh insights into what really goes on behind closed doors at Westminster, Snowdon exposes the bitter rivalries and recriminations that have blighted the Conservatives in Opposition, and gets to the heart of Cameron's quest for power and ambitions for office. Chair: Matthew Taylor, chief executive, RSA
