Beth Rigby’s at the Conservative party conference – talking to the shadow environment secretary Victoria Atkins.

She says that leader Kemi Badenoch has taken time to find confidence and her 11 months of ‘listening’ and ‘absorbing’ has come with ‘political knocks’.

The former health secretary acknowledges that she is sorry about the Tory proposal to leave the ECHR - but says politicians have to deal with the politics of today.

She also reveals how her parents met at Tory conference and which politician makes her shout at TV.
