One candidate who we haven't heard much from today is Rehman Chishti - a junior Foreign Office minister and a surprise contender.

The Gillingham MP has not received one single public backer among Tory MPs, however Rehman has tweeted that he will "continue my candidature till the very end".

Tory MP Aaron Bell has handed in the nomination papers for Tom Tugendhat's leadership bid to Tory 1922 Committee chairman Sir Graham Brady.

He is indicating Tugendhat has the support of the 20 MPs required to get onto the leadership ballot.

"Tom is now the first candidate to be duly nominated," Bell says.

ITV to host first Tory leadership debate in race to replace Boris Johnson as prime minister



The first Tory leadership debate will be hosted by ITV on Sunday, with unknown underdogs and big-hitting Cabinet ministers all hoping they can get on the billing.

It is not yet clear how many candidates will be taking part in the debate, with the rules and timeframe for the contest still yet to be set out.

There are 11 hopefuls so far, however that number is likely to be significantly reduced by the time the first debate takes place at 7pm on Sunday, July 17.

I hope Hunt gets nowhere.
He'd inflict the truly awful Esther McVey on the Nation as his deputy PM if he won.
No thanks from me to that whatsoever.
She's truly awful.
