As a member and activist I'm pleased that we can now move on with @RishiSunak as our Leader and Prime Minister. This is good news for the party and our country. Big sigh of relief
@PennyMordaunt Please don't make this more painful than necessary. We just want you lot to work together - united for the benefit of the country. This all sounds like its about your personal ambition now.
Undecided Tory MPs, the hard of thinking, Johnson was calling you yesterday from his holiday abroad. That's a holiday abroad when parliament is not on holiday. If he told you - from his holiday - that it would be different this time, this is a big clue. It won't.
Watching PMQs just emphasises that @PennyMordaunt must be our future. #PM4PM The damage done by other candidates during this process has been horrendous for our party.

@PennyMordaunt has plans to help people today with cost of living crisis and a plan for our children to be able to buy a house before they are 33. #PM4PM#PutPennyOnTheBallot
It’s been a great pleasure to have supported @KemiBadenoch over the past week or so. She’s done tremendously well. I’m disappointed with the result today. One of the most exciting candidates to have ever entered a Conservative leadership contest. I’m now floating voter 😂
Really neither were 54 other PMs. And why pick on being a Mum or not. As a mother I lead my life in many ways and not all the choices I make are relevant to being a Mother. @colinbrazierGBN #putpennyontheballot#PM4PM
In a campaign video today, Tory hopeful Penny Mordaunt asks: “Will your next PM understand the life you live?
"I have and I will.”
She mistakes experience for empathy.
For example; Mordaunt has never been a Mum.
By her logic, she can't understand the lives of millions of mums.
So the right wing papers are launching attacks on Penny M
Presumably for her lack of corruptibility
And cabinet members are sniping at her too. That's because they're such a third rate crowd that she will
fire them
Two good reasons for the Tory public to vote for her
🚨 Exclusive — Penny Mordaunt is the overwhelming favourite among young Tories, polling of @YoungConNetwork members shows
