Demoralised Liberals Face Uncertain New Parliament
The new Parliament opens with many fresh faces as Mr Brand again becomes Speaker. The Liberals appear disunited after a crushing election result with no clear policy or leaders, while Mr Disraeli’s Conservatives prepare for practical finances and estimates. The Marquis of Hartington is seen as a temporary leader, with future tactics and allies unclear.
