This week marked the midpoint of the coalition government .Conservative MPs Mark Field and Margot James consider its durability. And as the enduring interest in the English Civil war is made evident in a sell-out play 55 Days at the Hampstead Theatre in London. MPs Tristram Hunt (Labour) and Douglas Carswell (Conservative) explain why we are still interested in roundheads and cavaliers. The Editor is Marie Jessel.
