A new frontrunner has emerged in the race for the Tory leadership. 

James Cleverly has shot to the top after the latest vote, taking 39 of the 120 votes. 

Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick are battling for a spot in the final two, taking 29 and 30 votes respectively, and Tom Tugendhat fell short at only 20 votes. 

UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Mike Hosking that Badenoch is almost certain to become the next leader of the Conservative Party. 

He said that her win would be bad news for Starmer, as of all the candidates lined up to potentially replace Rishi Sunak, she is the one who could cause the most damage at the dispatch box.
