Meet the conservatives the Left fear the most

This week, the best and brightest of the British Right gathered in London for the National Conservatism conference. 

Leading up to NatCon there was much speculation from the Left that it would be an opportunity for the far-Right to spout bigoted hate. 

I went to NatCon to find out the truth in a new documentary for The Telegraph.  

NatCon's attendees were young, articulate and bright; I did not pick up on a whiff of extremism. 

Instead, there was much anger with the Tory Party for its failure to enact conservative policies. 

For example, their broken promises on immigration and leftward drift on social issues were two major contentions for the conference goers. 

Whilst there is much noise about how the Conservatives are failing to engage young people who are increasingly Left-wing, they have also alienated those with more traditional views. 

By becoming a socially-liberal party under David Cameron, the Tories have simply been outflanked by Labour on social issues whilst angering their core voters. 

This week, Matt Hancock warned the Tories against pursuing a socially conservative agenda, claiming his former party would cease to be an electoral force if they did so. 

If the Conservatives decide to merely become a replica of their opponents, then what is the point in them? 

This goes to explain why Sunak's party is so far behind in the polls; if you abandon your core principles and betray your electorate, do not expect them to vote for you. 

Speakers at NatCon were not afraid to touch on controversial issues, including demography, defending our history, immigration, and the degradation of our culture.  

On all of these issues the Conservative Party have for far too long been on the wrong side.
