Hello and welcome to Coffee House Shots, the Spectators' Daily,

and sometimes more than daily politics got cast.

I'm Katie Andrews and I'm joined by Katie Balls and James Forsyth.

So at Katie's request, we're going to start with some breaking news this morning,

Robert Buckland has endorsed Rishi Seenak, perhaps one of the biggest political

upsets of all time, Katie. Tell us how we've come to this point.

It's been a world ride. I'm old enough to remember when Robert Buckland endorsed

Rishi Seenak the first time, which was in the summer during the Tory leadership contest.

And then it became clear quite quickly that Liz Truss was gaining some momentum.

Membership polling was suggesting that she might be victorious.

There were some rumours that Robert Buckland might switch, and there could be switches from the

trust camp. Then there was a bit of a campaign disaster for Liz Truss the day of the regional

payboards, and we heard the switches were standing down. And then a few days a week or so on,

when things, you know, that sort of for Liz Truss, we had the news that Robert Buckland was

switching his support to Liz Truss. And he had a factor and he won a cabinet role.

So I think in all seriousness, that was sat here this morning when it looks as though there could

be a coronation of Rishi Seenak, taking someone who perhaps often works that was quite good for their

career opportunities, endorsing Rishi Seenak, does suggest Rishi Seenak's looking pretty

sure from at least his perspective, the parliamentary party, as the very likely next Prime Minister.
