Coffee House Shots

Are Conservatives disembarking the Boris train?

12 min • 18 november 2021
The announcement of the Integrated Rail Plan has left many, including a number of Conservative MPs, disappointed due to the proposed new routes and notable omissions. This comes at a bad time for Boris Johnson who is already in the dog house over his handling of the Owen Paterson affair.

Katy Balls talks to James Forsyth and Isabel Harman about the Prime Minister's popularity going off the rails.
