Tory leadership live updates: Rishi Sunak on top in Conservative leadership race as field narrows to final four

Just a quick reminder of that result from earlier and how each of the candidates fared.

But Kemi Badenoch appears to have secured some of those MPs too. Her votes rose by nine from the second round, totalling 58. And while she remains in fourth place, she is creeping up behind Ms Truss. The country could also end up with only its third female leader in Number 10, if Ms Badenoch, Penny Mordaunt or Liz Truss take the crown.20:58:15Now Rishi Sunak has responded to the results and another dose of praise for Tom Tugendhat, as he decides where to pledge his support.

And reflecting on the exit of Tom Tugendhat, she calls him"a friend and colleague who I’ve admired for years". "So to go up by 14, the biggest jump of any of the candidates, is a very solid result for Rishi," he tells Beth Rigby. "I think it is because we have had two debates now," says Mr Harper.

Thank God we have seen the back of this imposter and his psychosis for good!!!
