Jeans too

The days of 'Tory Boy' are over, if the Conservatives' shadow minister for young people is to be believed.

Charles Hendry notes that "the "Tory Boy" image has been jettisoned and the youth wing now looks "very normal". "That is the biggest change in our image change...Whereas 10 years ago they were having white tie dinners at £150-a-head, there was a good mix at the latest Conservative future dinner, with people dressed in jeans and t-shirts. They do look like other students."
