THERE are now five Tory MPs left in the running to become the next Conservative leader and prime minister after the second ballot amongst the parliamentary party.
On Thursday morning, there were six MPs in the running after Jeremy Hunt and Nadhim Zahawi lost out in the first round. That list has now been whittled down to five, with Brexiteer Suella Braverman eliminated after recieving only 27 votes - five fewer than the day prior.
