Theresa May delivered one of the most memorable speeches ever delivered at a party conference - for all the wrong reasons.Everything which could go wrong for the Prime Minister did go wrong. First, there was an interruption by a prankster who handed her a P45, Next she was brought low by a terrible cough that forced her to halt her speech on numerous occasions.Then to complete the humiliation the letters on the slogan behind her fell off while she was speaking.Mrs May won sympathy for soldiering on to the end but it was excruciating to watch. And her on stage agony meant it was difficult to concentrate on the substance of her speech.The Mirror's Jason Beattie, Kevin Maguire, Nicola Bartlett and Mikey Smith discuss the PM's calamitous address and what it means for her future and her fractious party.
