12 min listen

The Tory briefing war continues to get underway, with David Frost launching a vicious broadside at Penny Mordaunt on talkRadio this morning. ‘She wasn’t fully accountable or visible. Sometimes I didn’t even know where she was’, Lord Frost said.

On the episode, Cindy Yu talks to Isabel Hardman and James Forsyth about the latest round of the leadership ballot, where Suella Braverman has been culled, and look ahead to the weekend consisting of two TV debates, which present a make-or-break opportunity for relatively unknown candidates like Penny Mordaunt and Tom Tugendhat.
