Mel Stride: The Tory underdog bites back

The Daily T

Six candidates have now lined up to lead the Conservative Party into its first period of opposition for 14 years. Over the coming months, The Daily T will be speaking to the candidates battling for the soul of the Tories - in a series we're calling The Daily T(ory).

Mel Stride, perhaps best known for his many broadcast appearances during the election campaign, is first out of the blocks. In an extended cut of his interview with Camilla and Gordon, the former work and pensions secretary sets out his plans to return the Conservative Party to its core values and - crucially - his favourite crisp flavour.
