Who is winning the Tory leadership war?
Listen now
Description
It's the final day of the Conservative conference and the four remaining leadership hopefuls have been making their big pitches to the members. Kamal is joined by former Tory special advisor Henry Newman to listen through to the final speeches in Birmingham. They assess whether Tom Tugenhat brought enough energy, James Cleverly's digs at his rivals, Robert Jenrick's confused pledges and Kemi Badenoch's culture wars boasts. Plus, it was the first (and only) vice-presidential debate in New York last night as JD Vance took on Tim Walz live on CBS. Kamal chats to Telegraph Deputy US Editor Rozina Sabur, who was at the debate, to find out more about JD Vance's new 'Mr Nice Guy' image and why Tim Walz can't decide if he was in Tiananmen Square or not.
