“Nigel Farage Wants To EXACERBATE The Conservative Split!“ | Tory Party To Start Leadership Race
The Conservative Party will appoint a new leader on November 2 to replace Rishi Sunak.
The 1922 Committee of backbenchers has agreed the rules and timeline for the leadership contest.
Nominations will kick off on Wednesday evening and close in the afternoon on July 29.
Each candidate will need a proposer, seconder and eight nominations to qualify.
The parliamentary party will then narrow the field down to four, who will make their case at the Conservative Party Conference, which runs from September 29 to October 2.
The final two, picked by the parliamentary party, will then be voted on by Conservative Party members in an online ballot that will close on October 31.
Talk’s Dr David Bull is joined by political commentator Theo Usherwood, who says Reform UK will want the Tories to pick “a more centrist“ leader, to “exacerbate“ the split on the right.
