This accessible, rigorously researched and highly revealing book lifts the lid on political party membership. It represents the first in-depth study of six of the UK's biggest parties – Labour, the Conservatives, the Scottish National Party, the Liberal Democrats, UK Independence Party and the Greens – carried out simultaneously, thereby providing invaluable new insights into members' social characteristics, attitudes, activities and campaigning, reasons for joining and leaving, and views on how their parties should be run and who should represent them. In short, at a time of great pressure on, and change across parties, this book helps us discover not only what members want out of their parties but what parties want out of their members. This text is essential reading for those interested in political parties, party membership, elections and campaigning, representation, and political participation, be they scholars and students of British and comparative politics, or politicians, journalists and party members – in short, anyone who cares about the future of representative democracy.

Following on from a consultation process, this White Paper contains a number of proposals based around three core principles: developing a unified approach to the historic environment; maximising opportunities for inclusion and involvement; and supporting sustainable communities by putting the historic environment at the heart of an effective planning system. The first section sets out legislative change and implementation arrangements for England; the second part cover implementation arrangements for Wales; and the third section covers legislative change effecting the marine historic environment across the UK. Proposals include: the creation of a single system for national designation to replace listing, scheduling and registering; the publication of new detailed selection criteria for national and local designation; responsibility for national designation devolved in England to English Heritage; improved public access to designation records through new internet portals, along with new consultation and appeal processes; new statutory management agreements for historic sites; clearer and enhanced protections for World Heritage Sites; and the introduction of a new statutory duty for local authorities to maintain or have access to Historic Environment Records.
