Poor, white, working-class children are the group most in need to help. But theirs is not a fashionable cause.
The Conservative cause is meant to be about basic decency, fairness, justice, and an equal chance for all. The Party machinery doesn’t live up to those ideals.

Initially, our campaign to get the Prime Minister on the ballot was met with derision. Now, it is a very different situation. We can do it. We are very close.
