Full Schedule of Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham
The Tory Party Conference begins in Birmingham today amid a major cost of living crisis and in the wake of a mini budget that was not well received.
The conference catchline is "getting Britain moving to deliver more jobs and higher wages" and we're about to hear how they plan to achieve those admirable goals.
The conference will open later with tributes to the late Queen.
We'll then hear speeches from West Midlands mayor Andy Street, as well as Tory heavyweights Penny Mordaunt and Secretary of Defence Ben Wallace.
The real political meat, however, comes on Monday when Kwasi Kwarteng addresses members, and on Wednesday when Prime Minister Liz Truss delivers the final leader’s speech.
While there are plenty of fringe and training events over next few days, below is a list of the main speakers on the main stage on each day, according to the official agenda. The order of the speakers isn't given.
