Kemi Badenoch or Robert Jenrick will be crowned as the new Conservative Party leader on Saturday, as the four-month-long race to replace Rishi Sunak reaches the finish line. The result of the leadership ballot is expected to be announced late in the morning, with the members’ ballot having closed on Thursday.

In her victory speech, Badenoch described her first tasks as ‘tough but simple’ – we’d argue they’re tough and extremely challenging.
