Consider for a moment a part of Britain vital to Conservatives past and present. It boasts historic buildings, parks of a lush green and even a socking great statue of Winston Churchill. The latest census shows it is significantly more religious than any other region, and a sizable chunk of residents are Christian. Surveys suggest locals are far more likely to frown on same-sex relationships and sex before marriage. And it is partly responsible for the most electorally successful Tory politician in three decades. What is this rightwing heartland, this blue nirvana?
Try: London, the city that made Boris Johnson its mayor. Twice.
