Craftian Conservative Party

The Craftian Conservative Party (CCP, commonly known as the Conservatives or Cons, colloquially the Tories) is a centre-right political party in Craftia. The party is the one of the two major political parties in federal politics, the other being the National United Party. It sits on the right of the Craftian political spectrum, and has become a 'big tent' or 'catch-all' party of the centre-right. The party retains a conservative (sometimes labelled a liberal-conservative) platform and ideology. However, in recent years, the party has also been described as more right-wing and fiscally conservative, while becoming more socially centrist, although policy is dictated by the balance between the party's three main factions: the moderate "Wets" (also called the Blue Dogs), the conservative "Dries" (also called the Queanbeyan Tories), and the hard right "True Tories".

The party's support base includes White Craftians, high-income families, the upper and upper middle class (the lower middle class now tends to support the Liberals), business owners, rural workers, those affiliated with a religion and older voters. The Conservatives are traditionally more dominant in the states of Addams and Wintaro, and to a lesser extent Meyang, and today receives the most support in rural areas, the suburbs and wealthy inner-city regions.

The Conservative Party has supplied seven of Craftia's Prime Ministers and has held government for 25 years, compared to the NUP's nine Prime Ministers and 30 years in office. However, compared to the United Party, the Conservatives have usually been able to form government with various minor parties, compared to United's frequent dependence on the Liberal Party of Craftia to form government.

The party has been in opposition at federal level since the 2067 election with Linda Remington as party leader and Leader of the Opposition. It is currently in government in three states: Wintaro since 2056, Addams since 2064, and Meyang since 2068. It is the Official Opposition in the Bankera Capital Territory, Berhardsson, Jagsland, Jebsten and Western Craftia.

The Conservatives have been the dominant centre-right party of Craftia since the 1990s, largely superseding the role of the Protection of Craftia Party and the National Party of Craftia in the provincial era.
