The Conservatives annual conference in Birmingham – essentially one big job interview. By Wednesday afternoon the Conservatives should be a lot closer to knowing who their next leader will be.

The selected candidates are Robert Jenrick, James Cleverly, Kemi Badenoch and Tom Tugendhat with Rishi Sunak as the leader.

Tens of thousands of council homes sit empty as the waitlist grows.

Rod Little told Heather du Plessis-Allan that today it was Tugendhat who seems to be one of the outsiders.

Liddle states the general thinking is that this will come down to a final between Badenoch from the right and Jenrick from the centre left.

Liddle believes that it's looking more like the conservative MPs will try to get rid of Badenoch before it gets to the final.
