Description
Counting down the last five days until the election results come flooding in, the Conservative Party is still blowing themselves apart from the inside.

Now known for hosting the “The Rest is Politics” podcast with former Labour spin-doctor Alastair Campbell, Rory explains why he might return to politics - even going for the top job.
