A series in which people on the receiving end of hatred meet their demons.
Boris Johnson, editor of the Spectator and a failed Tory candidate in 1997 for Clwyd South, finds out why voters saw red when he tried to woo them. From Loony Lefties to disaffected former Conservatives, from anti-sleaze campaigners to Essex Man, he grapples with the tarnished Tory reputation as the party of fogey-ish self-interest, of divide and rule, and, in the process, puts his own true blue convictions to the test. He asks Billy Bragg, Mohammed Al Fayed, Martin Bell, Emma Nicholson and others why some people hate Tories.
