For a leader condemned as a dead woman walking Theresa May is doing a decent impression of a politician who is far from finished.

She delivered a competent performance at this week’s PMQs and had the reassuring noise of cheering backbenchers behind here.

Of course, there are plenty of things that can and may blow her of course, not least the negotiations over Brexit with the EU clearly unprepared to roll over and give the UK whatever it asks for.

And there are signs of a rift in the cabinet over the public sector pay cap with both Michael Gove and Boris Johnson making noises about whether the 1% pay limit for workers should be reviewed.

Add in the pressure coming from business leaders to avoid a “cliff edge” exit and there’s a growing pile of awkward issues in the Number 10 in-tray.

At the risk of being confounded by more turbulence in politics, however, the PM looks relatively secure.

Or at least she does this week.

Kent is definitely punching above its weight when it comes to MPs sitting on the front bench, boosted by the elevation of Ashford's Damian Green to become de facto deputy Prime Minister.

There's defence secretary Michael Fallon; business minister Greg Clark and sports minister Tracey Crouch.

And away from ministers, there's Damian Collins at the helm of the influential backbench culture, media and sports committee.

Ii would be interesting to see if any other county can compare.
