drift

Former minister and former Conservative leadership contender Tom Tugendhat says young people were not "drifting away from the centre" but "drifting away from what doesn't work for them".

The words of my father, a second-generation submariner, often recited when I was a child, drifted through my head: “Rocked in the cradle of the deep, I lay me down in peace to sleep.”

Sharmone sent the BBC footage he filmed of drivers appearing to perform "drifting" tricks while nearly driving into crowds of spectators.

At another meeting, Tugendhat said young people were "drifting away" from the Conservatives because the party's policies did not work for them.

And towering plumes of smoke and acrid odors drifted eastward with the onshore winds.
