A New Conservative Leader: Future Challenges and Opportunities

As the Conservative Party leadership contest concludes, the new opposition leader will face significant challenges. With fewer MPs, a massive Labour majority, internal fractures, and competition from Reform and the Liberal Democrats, they will need to strategise on how to mount an effective opposition with just 121 MPs.

In this free-to-attend webinar, the editors of our leading political titles ConservativeHome, The House and PoliticsHome will join Total Politics CEO and political journalist Mark Wallace, to offer commentary on the Conservative leadership contest results and share their insights on the challenges and opportunities the new leader faces.

This webinar will explore these key themes alongside other questions, such as:

How will the new leader rebuild public trust and regain the support of voters who have abandoned the party?
Which issues will they prioritise to challenge the Labour government?
What will the Shadow Cabinet look like?
How will the party look in 5 years?
The importance of the House of Lords in scrutinising bills as they pass through Parliament
