Underdog Cleverly Takes the Lead
In a surprising turn of events, James Cleverly has emerged as the frontrunner in the Tory leadership race, leaving former favorites Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick scrambling to secure support.
Campaign Teams in Action
Following his victory in the third round of voting, Cleverly's campaign team is working hard to gather support from former contender Tom Tugendhat's backers, who are now up for grabs.
Cleverly's Support Surges
James Cleverly, the Shadow Home Secretary, saw a significant increase in support after delivering an upbeat speech at the party conference, with his backing jumping by 18 votes to 39.
Competition Heats Up
Despite a series of gaffes, Kemi Badenoch's support rose to 30 votes, while Robert Jenrick, who led in previous rounds, saw a decrease in support to 31 votes.
Looking Ahead
With a vote to narrow the field down to two candidates scheduled for today, the Tory party membership will then choose a winner, to be announced on November 2.
