It is an honour and a privilege to have been elected to lead our great Conservative Party. A party that I love, that has given me so much. I’d also like to pay tribute to Robert Jenrick who fought a great campaign. I have no doubt he will have a key role to play in our party

We must listen to what the experts are saying. Royal College of Physicians joins Royal College of Psychiatrists in sounding the alarm on #AssistedDyingBill. Vulnerable people are at risk of great harm from this Bill.
