Kemi tells Anne "we are a distressed asset"
from Politics At Sam and Anne's
48 hours before the Conservatives arrive in Manchester (and some are joking that they hope the party enjoys its last conference), Anne’s got an interview with Kemi Badenoch. The Tory leader tells members to “hold their nerve” with her – and comes out swinging about recent defections to Reform. But was it wise to liken the party to a “distressed asset”? Elsewhere, Sam’s got more on the digital ID cards plan – with support apparently slipping in cabinet and in the country. Is AI having a role in changing some people’s minds about the controversial policy?
