Description

Conservative Party Chairman Kenneth Baker comments on the party’s resolve to win the next election, inner-party squabbling, and the fact that Margaret Thatcher will lead the Tories into the next election, so there is no vacancy for the top job. Norman Tebbitt’s remark that he was willing to stand is also addressed as a distraction. Male interviewer not identified (poss. Peter Murphy).
