Badenoch scraps stamp duty with ‘best speech of her career’
On the final day of Conservative conference, Kemi Badenoch has pulled out a speech that could well save the Tories.
Camilla and Tim say the performance secured Badenoch's job (at least for now), issued a clear message to Robert Jenrick to "get back in his box" and dropped a "big Conservative policy bomb" in the shape of a pledge to scrap stamp duty.
They also spoke to Tory members as they left the hall after the speech as well as shadow business secretary Andrew Griffith who said Badenoch's performance showed the Conservatives are "on the side of people who aspire".
