They are holding the nation hostage to their own personal historic squabbles, their views are not the views of the rank and file Conservative members &amp; voters, nor those of Brexiteers&nbsp;or the nation at large.<\/p>\n<p>In 2015 the Bow Group recommended a grassroots electoral pact between the Conservatives and UKIP, and we maintain that so long as the right is divided strong stable government will be out of reach. We hope that the Conservatives, the Brexit Party and UKIP can find a way to work together, but if it&nbsp;cannot be worked out from the top down it will have to be done at grassroots level from the bottom up. If that means putting old coalitions like Grassroots Out, Leave.EU and Leave Means Leave back together then so be it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This is a crucial time for Britain, even in the context of our great and storied history. It&#8217;s a time to put petty differences aside and form an unstoppable Brexit coalition to take us out of the EU by November, if Boris cannot even unite the Brexit movement&nbsp;he will never unite the country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Benjamin Harris-Quinney, Chairman, The Bow Group<\/strong><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;The Bow Group is Britain&#8217;s oldest conservative think tank and the place where Brexit sprang from in the work of senior members like Sir Bill Cash MP and the Maastricht rebels in the late 80s and early 90s.
