The Tories fight for their political lives
The shadow chancellor Sir Mel Stride gave the keynote speech on day two of the Conservative Party conference in Manchester, and painted the Tories as the only party trying to save the high street, as he promised to scrap business rates for 250,000 pubs, restaurants and other small businesses. Joining the Daily T after his speech, Sir Mel told Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley that he’s comfortable cutting international aid to 0.1pc of GDP in order to pay for the cut, why he believes leaving the ECHR is the right thing to do and whether he thinks Liz Truss should be expelled from the party. Camilla and Tim also caught up with the shadow home secretary Chris Philp, who explained how the Tories pledge to remove 150,000 illegal immigrants will work, as well as speaking to Katie Lam, shadow home office minister and a widely-touted future Conservative leader. ► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.
