Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak face a grilling in Darlington tonight as the cost-of-living crisis continues to dominate the Tory leadership contest.
Mr Sunak and Ms Truss will be interviewed by Tom Newton Dunn, TalkTV's political editor, before facing questions from an audience made up of Conservative members.
The 2019 general election saw Darlington elect a Conservative MP for the first time in 32 years as the party made dozens of gains in northern and predominantly working-class 'Red Wall' constituencies.
It comes after the two candidates clashed over measures to help households this winter amid projections that annual energy bills will reach £4,200 by January.
On Thursday, the Telegraph is hosting its own hustings event in Cheltenham - and we invite you to leave your questions for Ms Truss and Mr Sunak in the comments section of this live blog.
