Robert Jenrick Reveals Daughter's Middle Name at Conference

During the Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham, Robert Jenrick, a candidate for the leadership, revealed that his daughter's middle name is 'Thatcher', a tribute to the late former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who died the year she was born. Jenrick made the comment while discussing his daughters, humorously linking it to Keir Starmer's acquisition of free tickets for Taylor Swift. He emphasized his respect for strong women and highlighted that his household comprises entirely of females, including his three daughters and two dogs. Additionally, Jenrick pledged to refuse 'freebies' if he returns to government and reiterated his commitment to addressing immigration issues. His remarks come amid a competitive leadership race, with polls showing a tightening between him and fellow candidate Kemi Badenoch.
