It will be too long to post here even when it appears on the website at the end of this week, although I will post the link. But do get hold of Simon Heffer's study of Margaret Thatcher's Gladstonian Liberalism in this week's New Statesman.
A strong supporter of hers, he states and shows, purely as a matter of fact, that she was in no sense a conservative or a Tory, that she was as hostile to those who were as they were to her, and that she joined the electable Conservative Party rather than the unelectable Liberal Party as an act of pure opportunism.
