'Heseltine is too oldClarke is too cavalier. Portillo is too ridiculous. So who will succeed John Major? Step forward Jonathan Aitken' - Mail on Sunday
Jonathan Aitken is a former Conservative Member of Parliament and Cabinet Minister. His shock resignation in 1995 followed media allegations of sleaze during the final months of the Tory government. Previous books include lives of Nixon and Charles Colson.
