Normally, it will be gleaned from my perch in the warren of offices behind the press gallery of the House of Commons. But for the first two weeks I will be bringing you intelligence picked up from the travelling circus of party conferences: first the Conservatives in Manchester and then Labour in Liverpool. The aim is that it will be different from the daily View From Westminster email, which is a round-up of news with a dab of opinion; Commons Confidential will give more of the hidden workings of my life at the heart of politics – or, at least, my life in a front-row seat at the show. It will be for Independent subscribers only, so sign up now for what I hope will be exclusive insights not just into how the parties are fighting the long campaign for the general election, but the calculations and manoeuvring behind the scenes. Commons Confidential will go out every Wednesday at 7pm, starting on 4 October.   Subscribe today To receive Commons Confidential, along with unlimited access to Premium insight, ad-free reading, the daily edition newspaper, puzzles and more, [subscribe today for just £20 for one year](~/AAAHagA~/RgRm9-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).
