Robert Jenrick is launching his leadership bid at a YMCA venue in Newark. Quite a few hacks with time to spare have showed up…

Esther McVey is kicking off. Don’t expect jabs at other hopefuls…

So far the slogans are:

• Robert Jenrick: “Change. Win. Deliver.“
• Tom Tugendhat: “Unite. Rebuild. Win.”
• Priti Patel: “Unity. Experience. Strength.“
• Mel Stride: “Trust. Change. Win.“

Hardly eye-popping stuff. It’s going to be a long campaign…
