Tugendhat out as Cleverly tops Tory leadership contest
The Independent
|October 09, 2024
James Cleverly has surged to the top of the Tory leadership race, winning the backing of the most Conservative MPs after a barnstorming conference performance.
The former home secretary topped the third round ballot of Tory MPs, winning the backing of 39 in total. It turns the race to succeed Rishi Sunak on its head, with Robert Jenrick and Kemi Badenoch now in a life or death struggle – before party members begin voting on a final two from tomorrow.
Former immigration minister Mr Jenrick, who was considered the favourite in the run up to the Tory conference last week in Birmingham, placed second with 31 votes. Former business secretary Ms Badenoch, a favourite among the Tory rank and file, was third with 30 votes. Mr Tugendhat, a former security minister and favourite of the One Nation caucus of Tory MPs, was knocked out after being backed by just 20 votes.
