And could Labour be about to break their manifesto pledge if they increase National Insurance contributions for businesses? Later, Beth, Ruth and Harriet examine why the Conservative Party leadership candidates have such different approaches to the media. Which outlets are important in 2024? And is that reflected in the US election? Email us at electoraldysfunction@sky.uk, post on X to @BethRigby, or send a WhatsApp voice note on 07934 200 444.  Click here to listen to the Disorder podcast: https://podfollow.com/disorder
