the conversation magazine over the last week and as we saw from priti patel last night as well is a lotant him to go further, they want him to cut income tax because people notice that more, i think, but they also don't want him to offset this by raising taxes elsewhere. so the getting rid of tax breaks and second homes, a lot of tory mps see that as giving with one hand and taking away with the other, so even if he does achieve a bit of a pole close, people feel their personal finances are better, than he is at risk of tory mps mobilising and complaining that this is still a really high level of tax for the uk and that they want more. and he himself would say and argue "iwant to be able to do more" but sadly the way the economics are at the moment, the way the uk economy is doing in terms of not growing, flatlining, and of course the servicing of debt and that cost being more than was expected at that time, he has not got that wiggle room. that time, he has not got that wiggle room-— wiggle room. and i think the assessment _ wiggle room. and i think the assessment he _ wiggle room. and

and literally with priti patel.tories out there, lord hayward would like, would you would you stay in a party with nigel farage, robert hayward, i, i'd have to see what he was advocating. >> i as far as i'm concerned , >> i as far as i'm concerned, you look at any individual, but is nigel farage going to go back to rejoin the conservative party in the way that he was previously, or is he now adopting reform party policies, which are actually in a fair number of ways, pretty left wing in terms of their commitment to expenditure on a whole series of things? no, i'm a sound conservative economist in terms of the views and the support of private enterprise entrepreneurship . and at the entrepreneurship. and at the moment, the reform party is nowhere near that. so if nigel pursues those policies, i couldn't support him. >> okay. excellent stuff. the brilliant pollster lord robert hayward and chris hope is brilliant and everything great, sir. let's move on. thank you gentlemen. now there's still plenty of time to grab our

their own candidate, perhaps kemi badenoch or suella braverman even or suella braverman or even priti patelshe's likely to actually issue a pubuc she's likely to actually issue a public rebuttal . but that's public rebuttal. but that's pretty awkward in itself. this week we've got the prime minister speaking to backbenchers, begging them to remember his plan is on remember that his plan is on track, that interest rates are set to go down, that inflation is set to hit its 2% target in the next few months. meanwhile, you've got the leader of the commons in rishi sunaks cabinet having up in the commons having to get up in the commons and deny that she's on and publicly deny that she's on manoeuvres. it's the of manoeuvres. it's the sign of a very , very weak party and very, very weak party and possibly a party that's going to get even weaker after those may elections. if a crisis point does come, i think we can expect it to be in early may. >> thank you, olivia, thank you very much indeed. if you've got a view on that, please do share it with us. >> i've got one that's just come in from eunice

morning ijust mentioned comes from a group that includes three former conservative home secretary is, priti patel by politicians. rishi sunak, a couple of weeks ago, referred to protests descending into what he termed mob rule and he was criticised for using that language. it wasn't very helpful, was it? i think the prime minister set out on the steps of downing street a very, very clear, and i would argue very inclusive agenda, and keeping british people say. he made the point, and i think it is the correct one to make, that extremism in this country sadly has risen and we must take action to confront it. this is notjust take action to confront it. this is not just about a single take action to confront it. this is notjust about a single community or a single point of origin. about making sure people in our country are safe wherever are and communities feel safe across the united kingdom. i made a speech on friday in coventry about this. it was before a bipartisan audience, a more conservative leaning think tank and labour together, a more labour leaning think tank. what i said out of them, whic
