They were known as "Independent Whigs", "<a href="/wiki/Tories_(British_political_party)#Friends_of_Mr_Pitt" title="Tories (British political party)">Friends of Mr Pitt</a>", or "Pittites" and never used terms such as "Tory" or "Conservative". From about 1812, the name "Tory" was commonly used for a new party that, according to historian Robert Blake, "are the ancestors of Conservatism". Blake adds that Pitt's successors after 1812 "were not in any sense standard-bearers of 'true Toryism'".<a href="#cite_note-56">[56]</a> The term Tory was an insult that entered <a href="/wiki/Politics_of_England" title="Politics of England">English politics</a> during the <a href="/wiki/Exclusion_Crisis" title="Exclusion Crisis">Exclusion Bill</a> crisis of 1678–1681, which derived from the <a href="/wiki/Middle_Irish" title="Middle Irish">Middle Irish</a> word tóraidhe (modern <a href="/wiki/Irish_language" title="Irish language">Irish</a>: tóraí) meaning <a href="/wiki/Outlaw" title="Outlaw">outlaw</a> or robber, which in turn derived from the Irish word tóir, meaning pursuit, since outlaws were "pursued men".<a href="#cite_note-57">[57]</a><a href="#cite_note-58">[58]</a> The term "<a href="/wiki/Conservative" class="mw-redirect" title="Conservative">Conservative</a>" was suggested as a title for the party in an article by <a href="/wiki/John_Wilson_Croker" title="John Wilson Croker">J.

Nevertheless, Balfour, as party leader, introduced protectionist legislation.<a href="#cite_note-62">[62]</a> Churchill crossed the floor and formally joined the Liberal Party (he rejoined the Conservatives in 1925). In December, Balfour lost control of his party, as the defections multiplied. He was replaced by Liberal Prime Minister <a href="/wiki/Henry_Campbell-Bannerman" title="Henry Campbell-Bannerman">Henry Campbell-Bannerman</a> who called <a href="/wiki/1906_United_Kingdom_general_election" title="1906 United Kingdom general election">an election in January 1906</a>, which produced a massive Liberal victory. Liberal Prime Minister <a href="/wiki/H._H._Asquith" title="H. H. Asquith">H. H. Asquith</a> enacted a great deal of reform legislation, but the Unionists worked hard at grassroots organizing.

In Ireland, the <a href="/wiki/Irish_Unionist_Alliance" title="Irish Unionist Alliance">Irish Unionist Alliance</a> had been formed in 1891 which merged Unionists who were opposed to <a href="/wiki/Irish_Home_Rule_movement" title="Irish Home Rule movement">Irish Home Rule</a> into one political movement. Its MPs took the Conservative whip at Westminster, essentially forming the Irish wing of the party until 1922.

A leading economic theory advocated by Conservatives is <a href="/wiki/Supply-side_economics" title="Supply-side economics">supply-side economics</a>, which holds that reduced income tax rates increase growth and enterprise (although a reduction in the budget deficit has sometimes taken priority over cutting taxes).<a href="#cite_note-186">[186]</a> The party focuses on the <a href="/wiki/Social_market_economy" title="Social market economy">social market economy</a>, promoting a free market for competition with social balance to create fairness. This has included education reform, vocational skills reform, expanding <a href="/wiki/Universal_child_care" class="mw-redirect" title="Universal child care">free childcare</a>, curbs on the banking sector, enterprise zones to revive regions in Britain, and grand and extensive infrastructure projects, such as high-speed rail.<a href="#cite_note-187">[187]</a><a href="#cite_note-188">[188]</a> One concrete economic policy of recent years has been opposition to the European single currency, the <a href="/wiki/Euro" title="Euro">euro</a>.

The name itself comes from a famous phrase of <a href="/wiki/Disraeli" class="mw-redirect" title="Disraeli">Disraeli</a>. Ideologically, one-nation conservatism identifies itself with a broad <a href="/wiki/Paternalistic_conservative" class="mw-redirect" title="Paternalistic conservative">paternalistic conservative</a> stance.

Adherents believe in social cohesion and support social institutions that maintain harmony between different interest groups, classes, and—more recently—different races or religions. These institutions have typically included the <a href="/wiki/Welfare_state" title="Welfare state">welfare state</a>, the <a href="/wiki/BBC" title="BBC">BBC</a>, and local government.

EU centralisation also conflicts with the localist ideals that have grown in prominence within the party in recent years. Rare Thatcherite Europhiles included <a href="/wiki/Leon_Brittan" title="Leon Brittan">Leon Brittan</a>. Many take inspiration from Thatcher's Bruges speech in 1988, in which she declared that "we have not successfully rolled back the frontiers of the state in Britain only to see them reimposed at a European level".

The name stems from its support for three social institutions: the <a href="/wiki/Church_of_England" title="Church of England">Church of England</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Unitary_state" title="Unitary state">unitary British state</a> and the family. To this end, it emphasises the country's <a href="/wiki/Anglican" class="mw-redirect" title="Anglican">Anglican</a> heritage, oppose any transfer of power away from the United Kingdom—either downwards to the nations and regions or upwards to the European Union—and seek to place greater emphasis on traditional family structures to repair what it sees as a broken society in the UK. It is a strong advocate of marriage and believes the Conservative Party should back the institution with tax breaks and have opposed the alleged assaults on both traditional family structures and fatherhood.<a href="#cite_note-339">[339]</a> Prominent MPs from this wing of the party include <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Rosindell" title="Andrew Rosindell">Andrew Rosindell</a>, <a href="/wiki/Edward_Leigh" title="Edward Leigh">Edward Leigh</a> and <a href="/wiki/Jacob_Rees-Mogg" title="Jacob Rees-Mogg">Jacob Rees-Mogg</a>—the latter two being prominent Roman Catholics, notable in a faction marked out by its support for the established Church of England. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Relationships_between_the_factions">Relationships between the factions</h3></div> Sometimes two groupings have united to oppose the third. Both Thatcherite and traditionalist Conservatives rebelled over Europe (and in particular Maastricht) during <a href="/wiki/John_Major" title="John Major">John Major</a>'s premiership; and traditionalist and One Nation MPs united to inflict Margaret Thatcher's only major defeat in Parliament, over Sunday trading. Not all Conservative MPs can be easily placed within one of the above groupings. For example, John Major was the ostensibly "Thatcherite" candidate during the <a href="/wiki/1990_Conservative_Party_leadership_election" title="1990 Conservative Party leadership election">1990 leadership election</a>, but he consistently promoted One-Nation Conservatives to the higher reaches of his cabinet during his time as Prime Minister.
