Have a look at Robert and Edward Skidelsky's recent book , How Muvh is Enough? to be reminded what a renaissance man Keyes was....
also Thatcher's former Policy Unit chief, Ferdinand Mount, Mind the Gap. The New Class Divide......not riveting reading, but interesting because of the author (if he thinks this, then.....!)
