Description

The Conservative leader used her conference speech to announce plans to scrap stamp duty and launch an attack on Labour, but why was there so little mention of the biggest threat facing her party? And will her performance be enough to stave off leadership rival Robert Jenrick? Pippa Crerar and Kiran Stacey talk through the speech and ask where the Conservatives go from here. Plus, they speak to Luke Tryl from More in Common about whether any moments from conference season have moved the dial in British politics -- Send your thoughts and questions to politicsweeklyuk@theguardian.com.
