Conservative Party (UK) leadership election, 2003 The 2003 Conservative Party leadership election was caused by the enforced resignation of incumbent leader Iain Duncan Smith after the loss of a confidence vote among his parliamentary party. The causes of Duncan Smith's fall are often cited as his lack of charisma and impact with the public, the uninspired direction of the party under his leadership, and his previous failure to achieve more than a third of support among Members of Parliament in the 2001 leadership contest. In the event, the Conservative Party coalesced around Michael Howard as replacement leader and there was not a contest to replace Duncan Smith.

Mark Clarke (politician) Mark Clarke, born in June 1977, is a former UK Conservative Party parliamentary candidate that has been referred to as the "Tatler Tory", who is also former Director of the Young Britons' Foundation, former Chairman of Conservative Future, and ex-Director of the since-disbanded "Road Trip" electioneering organisation that bussed Conservative Party activists to marginal seats during the 2015 general election. Clarke was suspended from the Party on 24 September 2015, following the suicide of Conservative activist Elliott Alston Raymond Johnson who had named Clarke as having bullied him. A series of serious accusations subsequently appeared in several national newspapers about Clarke’s alleged misconduct and in November 2015 he was finally expelled and banned for life from representing or joining the Conservative Party again. His alleged misconduct within the Conservative Party led to national newspaper coverage about the extent to which senior figures in the Party knew about complaints regarding his actions, coverage that subsequently led to the resignation of Grant Shapps, a government minister.
