Rishi Sunak, Liz Truss and Penny Mordaunt remain, but none has a confirmed place in the last two. Liz Truss, the foreign secretary who has staked a claim to the right of the party, saw her vote jump by 15 to 86. I don't think Liz got 15 from us.

Andrea Leadsom, who is campaign manager for Mordaunt, told Sky News that her candidate was "fighting a positive, clean campaign" that would "reunite the party".
