The speech David Cameron always wanted to make

The battle to succeed David Cameron

What is George Osborne building?

That's all for our coverage today.

But remember, the final Today at Conference from the Conservative Party Conference, and the last instalment of the party conference season as a whole, is on shortly.

It will see James Landale introduce clips of David Cameron, Andrew RT Davies, Ruth Davidson and Theresa Villiers. 

And there will be part of Andrew Neil's combative interview with Michael Gove on the government’s housebuilding record.

It starts on BBC2 after Newsnight, at 23:15 (later in Scotland) with a 08:30 repeat on Thursday. 

Much has been made this week of the race to succeed David Cameron and who is in pole position: Boris, George or Theresa? Each had their moment in the sun on the conference floor and their speeches were all widely covered in the media. It may not be a totally scientific litmus test of their future leadership credentials but whose performance has proved the most popular on YouTube? Well, in this particular race - based on the official videos of the full speeches posted by the Conservatives - Boris Johnson is currently out in front. At the time of writing, his speech has been viewed an estimated 2,875 times on the video-sharing site. He holds a narrow lead over George Osborne, the chancellor having totted up an estimated 2,602 views. And Theresa May is currently trailing in third, her speech watched an estimated 1,709 times so far. Expect this contest to run and run...

The Spectator's Andrew Roberts considers how David Cameron might be remembered in Conservative history, external, predicting "he is likely to be seen in the front rank of peacetime Tory premiers" (Margaret Thatcher, Benjamin Disraeli, Lord Salisbury and Harold Macmillan).

BBC Radio 5 Live

Bernard Harris, the 82-year-old mentioned by David Cameron in his conference speech, has revealed it was Margaret Thatcher who persuaded him first to vote Conservative.

The PM quoted a letter written to him by Mr Harris, in which he said he had “foolishly” voted Labour and that “only a Conservative government will achieve… all I aspire to”.

Mr Harris told BBC Radio 5 Live he voted Labour during his working life, when he was also a trade unionist within the fire service. But after he retired in 1988, he changed his mind on which party to support.

"I found that my allegiance – common sense – took me from the Labour Party to the Conservative Party. I live in an ex-council house. Under Margaret Thatcher I was able to buy it," he said. 

The Daily Telegraph

David Cameron delivered "the most socially liberal speech a Conservative leader has ever given", writes Michael Deacon in the Telegraph, external. It was "all equality, social justice, beating poverty", the sketchwriter adds. But "this isn’t to say David Cameron has suddenly transformed into a paragon of PC virtue", he continues. "Minutes after denouncing sexism, he was parading his wife proprietorially around the hall, as if he’d just won her as a prize at a fair."
