Well, he seems to be releasing all these photos with these signs of people holding up signs behind him, like Jenrick for leader or whatever. Right, okay, yeah. It's all quite, well, it sounds American.

Also, it's hard to shake the, well, this is pointless feeling because we know what the Conservatives are like. If you become leader, I give you 18 months before someone stabs you straight in the back and then they spin you around and straight in the heart. That's how it works. I mean, look, on the bright side, you will get a bit of a Tory break now because...

I mean, they've sort of said everything they need to say. The next we'll hear from them is at the party conference. That's where the leaders will sequentially give speeches to Conservative Party members. I'm sure we'll cover that. But until then, you can have a little rest, have a little sit down.

Now, last week, we updated you all on the results of the Grenfell inquiry. Please do go back and check it out if you haven't already. But to keep it brief, it found that decades of failure and systematic dishonesty were the root causes of the disaster. Never one to avoid a chance at airbrushing his legacy, the former PM, Lord David Cameron, took to X writing...

The report is clear that fire safety and building safety regulations were explicitly excluded from the coalition government's greatly needed red tape reviews, given the importance we place on safety and build quality.

Sadly, Lord Cameron is not the only former PM to be saying some really just awful egregious things on this. Tony Blair, who we've previously referred to on this show as being in his second villain era, was also out and about.

And finally, this weekend, I had a joyous Saturday reading an excerpt from Diane Abbott's memoir, A Woman Like Me, published in The Guardian, which explores her life story, including her relationship with the independent MP and former leader of the Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn.

I'm really excited to read about this iconic politician, but I am going to spoil a little bit. I just want to read you some of the quotes about her relationship with Jeremy Corbyn. As I say, please do read it in full. I was gripped from the first word. And it says, around that time, I began to realise that realistically, ours was not a match made in heaven. We were two different, Abbott writes.

Once, after I lamented our lack of social activity as a couple, he pondered it for a few days and told me we were going out. Feeling excited, I dressed up nicely and we bundled into the car.
