[Results of latest Tory leadership knockout at 5PM:
Blow for Rishi as bombshell poll finds frontrunner
would LOSE to Liz Truss OR Penny Mordaunt in
head-to-head ballot of party members - as MPs
vote to decide who will stay in contest

Rishi Sunak has been endorsed by
Boris Johnson ally Steve Barclay as he
racks up support from Tory MPs
Former Chancellor's team is said to
be trying to make victory look 'inevitable'
with huge number of backers
Penny Mordaunt has officially launched
her campaign promising to restore
the Conservatives' 'sense of self'
They are among eight hopefuls who
have made the first round of voting today
but not all will survive the ballot
Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries last
night accused Team Sunak of the 'dark arts'
and 'dirty tricks' on Twitter]

Interesting.
Pleased Zahawi is out the running.

Even more pleased Hunt won't get the chance to inflict the awful Esther McVey as deputy PM on the Nation plus he came last.

There was a suggestion some Rishi supporters lent him their vote yesterday looks like that was the case

Nobody will vote for him - he’s too soft

Interesting to hear a couple of MPs stating categorically that there is no way that Rishi will be PM as he’s just too unpopular with the MPs in general and whoever goes up against him in the final two .. will win

i'm not convinced, they have an agenda, so i wouldn't believe them.

There are 3 candidates from the right wing of the party, as they drop out, their votes will be transferred to the one thats left. So, for example, add 60 votes to Liz and she takes the lead over Sunak
