  Barry surely "back to basics" was a Conservative initiative to highlight and tackle law and order, education and public morality. It was an attempt by Major to relaunch the party following their inability to manage the public finances in the wake of Black Wednesday.
  The initiative was an unmitigated disaster and backfired on Major, the Conservative Party preaching morality was akin to Hitler supporting human rights. The press had a field day, sleazy affairs were exposed, sexual deviancy and immorality in high places. When it came to family values the Conservatives suddenly discovered that they were no better than Mrs.Smith living with Mr Jones in a council flat. Things still haven't changed.
