Matt Hancock bumps into Christopher Hope after a victorious night for the Conservative Party. With their biggest majority since the eighties, he tells us why five more years of Tory rule means prioritising the NHS, a strong economy and breaking the Brexit deadlock.

Plus, Chopper is joined by former Chief of Staff to Theresa May, Gavin Barwell, peer and former Lord Chancellor, Lord Falconer, Director General of the CBI, Carolyn Fairbairn and Former Labour MP, Kate Hoey.

They discuss whether a strong Tory majority means Boris Johnson will pursue a softer Brexit, when Jeremy Corbyn’s might step down as Labour Party leader and the future of the Liberal Democrats, after a campaign that cost Jo Swinson her seat.
