Most Tory voters want to ditch Kemi Badenoch and bring back Boris Johnson, new polling shows. The survey found 60% of Conservative backers at last year's general election said the former prime minister would make a better leader than Mrs Badenoch.

“We all need to be focused on the real goal – kicking out this terrible Labour government that is making everything worse.”
