They never stopped being the nasty party.
The statement implies they apparently experienced a fleeting realisation that they were the nasty party... When that moment was is anyone's guess, as they've never changed their actions based on that information.
It was 2002

And it was said by Theresa May, who went on to lead the party after it remained nasty...
A conservatives idea of "nasty" is polling poorly and losing elections; nothing more.
Ah so history is just a circle.
