The Tory leadership race today plunged into bitter spats and lurched even further to the right as MPs fought for support ahead of a crunch vote.
Top right-wingers this morning were splintering between Liz Truss - seen by many as battling Penny Mordaunt for a spot in the final two - and her ‘woke warrior’ rival Suella Braverman.
Ex-leader Iain Duncan Smith and European Research Group chief Mark Francois backed Ms Truss while David Jones and Bernard Jenkin came out for Ms Braverman.
