This year’s Conservative party conference is an unusual one for the party. They are in power, but reliant on a deal with the DUP after they failed to secure a majority at June’s snap general election. Their leader bullishly claims to be in for the long haul, but few expect Theresa May to lead the party into the next election. And the party remains torn over Brexit and how to respond to the challenge of Jeremy Corbyn’s resurgent Labour party.

We would like to hear from Tory members or voters on the state of the party. What does the party need to do to turn things around? What policies do they need to focus on to recapture younger voters? Are you happy with Theresa May as leader, or do you see Amber Rudd, Boris Johnson or Jacob Rees-Mogg as best equipped to deliver a majority?

Let us know your views via the form below. We’ll be putting together an article based on your responses.
