Mr Sunak and Ms Truss will now face a campaign to win the votes of Tory members, with the result of the contest announced on September 5.

Chef Hiren Dhameliy, 30, said he only knew Rishi Sunak through his association with his famous wife’s family in India, while others said they had never heard of either candidate.
