Tracing the history of that racism, Racism and the Tory Party investigates the changing forms of racism in the party from the days of Empire, including the championing of imperialism at the turn of the 20th century and the ramping up of antisemitism, the imperial and racial' politics of Winston Churchill, the rise of Enoch Powell and Powellism, to the Margaret Thatcher years, the birth of racecraft' and her polices in Northern Ireland, and the hostile environment and its consolidation and expansion under Theresa May and Boris Johnson's premierships.
