Introduction -- Electing and Ejecting Party Leaders -- Selection and Ejection by the Parliamentary Party -- The Labour Party: The Electoral College -- The Conservative Party: Enfranchising the Members -- The Liberal Democrats: One Member-One Vote -- Electing and Ejecting Party Leaders: An Assessment -- Appendix A: Labour Party Leadership Election Results 1955-2010 -- Appendix B: Conservative Party Leadership Election Results 1965-2005 -- Appendix C: Liberal Party, Social Democratic Party and Liberal Democrat Leadership Election Results 1967-2007 -- Leadership Election Rules and Results in the Minor Parties and Devolved Major Parties: -- Appendix D: Green Party of England and Wales -- Appendix E: United Kingdom Independence Party -- Appendix F: British National Party -- Appendix G: Scottish National Party -- Appendix H: Plaid Cymru -- Appendix I: Labour Party Leaders in Scotland and Wales -- Appendix J: Conservative Party Leaders in Scotland and Wales -- Appendix K: Liberal Democrat Leaders in Scotland and Wales -- Appendix L: Donations to Candidates in Party Leadership Contests 2001-10 -- Appendix M: Proposed Labour Leadership Election Timetable 2009 -- Notes -- Index --.

The Conservative, Labour and the Liberal Democrats parties each allow their members to participate in the selection of the party leader, where previously this task was left to MPs. This book examines the consequences of the shift to all-member ballots through a series of case studies of recent leadership contests. It presents a wealth of evidence to show that, when party members choose leaders, they normally use the same selection criteria that MPs use: acceptability, electability and competence. Democratisation of leadership selection has not led to the election of radical leaders, but has proved compatible with the parties' major goals of internal unity and a broad electoral appeal. The book also assesses the ways in which parties remove leaders who have outstayed their welcome. It shows that, although all the major parties have sought to make it harder to eject leaders, Labour leaders are offered the most protection by their party's eviction rules.
