The News Agents

About this episode

The politician who once complained of not seeing enough "white faces" in Birmingham probably had a very white one himself this morning.

Robert Jenrick's apparent imminent plot to defect to Reform was left in tatters when his party leader Kemi Badenoch uncovered the plan, sacked him and booted him out of the party, and announced it to the world on a polished video clip.

What happens now to the shadow justice secretary - as was - and to both the Tory party and Reform?

Emily and Lewis speak to theTory party anthropologist Paul Goodman.
