Conservative Leadership Profile: Robert Jenrick
This is a bonus episode profiling one of the final two candidates in the Conservative leadership election, Robert Jenrick. Adam and Alex speak to Mark Spencer, former MP for Sherwood who has known Robert Jenrick since 2014 and as MPs for neighbouring constituencies. They discuss how Robert Jenrick became an MP after defeating UKIP in the 2014 Newark by-election, how he became the ‘first millennial cabinet minister’ under Boris Johnson and how he’s rebranded for this leadership contest.
